Property Plane

What would a typical overhaul of a cessna 182RG be? As opposed to a non retractable?

Jack it up , try the retract on both main and standby systems (if applicable), grease it and check it isn't bent or cracked. Maybe pay more attention to flexible and rigid brake hoses?

If you want specifics then we'd need more detailed questions, I think.

Too many variables to give an answer. What do you mean by 'overhaul'? Scheduled maintenance consists of differing depths of inspection: 50/100/500/1000 hour inspections, Cof A renewals and then there are ADs and maybe SBs to comply with.
On top of the scheduled maintenance, you have defect rectification to consider (at whatever hourly rate is charged).

I'm going to take issue with you, dawson67. How about the courtesy of a reply?
I've seen this attitude so many times from younger members, both on this website and others. I'd suggest you brush up on your manners and also learn how to phrase a request properly.

A spat?

Is this a Spat or is that what is fitted to the fixed gear 182?
