[quote] Guys,
I'm considering a couple of scratch built options for the 701 main gear.
I need a couple of items to pass on to the engineer that is doing the analysis and hopefully someone can help.
The Matco Wheel used for the Tundra Tire option is MHMH6BD.75XT, I need the weight of the wheel,tire, axel and brake assy. Also need the width of the wheel between the rims. Outside dia of inflated tire would be useful useful as well. OR if someone has a pair that they need to unload I'll buy them.
This is a preliminary design exercise to see if a homebuilt carbon gear can be made using pultruded rods into a simple mold. Goals are weight reduction (several POUNDS is anticipated)and reduced cost over the purchased original alum gear. THANKS I'll post the results of the study to the group. LOW&SLOW John Bolding

Hi John,
Took a look at my wheels, not yet mounted:
About 13 lbs each for the complete assembly with brakes...
18" diameter tires inflated,
Had trouble measuring the width of the rims... close to 4.5"
I am looking for a 701 Rotax engine mount... ifyou are going to scratch build one then build TWO and I'll buy one!
(Dont think you're going Rotax, tho!)
I have a Zenith Rotax 601 mount available for trade or sale..! (used, one owner)
35 degrees this morning... ouch!
Jon
