Bonanza landing gear part search

[gkainz]

Searching for Bonanza landing gear part - IPB calls it "Braze assembly Rod LH", part number 35-815125-602

google search turns up a couple of ebay parts, a few parts locator services (RFQ submitted) ... anyone else have a secret source or strong google-fu?

Thanks!
Greg

no more internetting. Use a phone to call ASOD and talk to Lucky.

do you mind telling what happened to it ? that's not typical

Thanks! Will make the call. No idea what happened, but last pilot reported "noise during gear retraction and extension". On jacks, the gear swing was more than just "noisy" - it stowed with a bang and clunk, and deployed the same way - severe enough that the plane shook on the jacks.

Removal and inspection shows it's bent and has 3 cracks.

A google search returned a hit to POA with a list of circulars Stache posted a while back and included a similar sounding incident
