I am looking for right and left wheel pant brackets that mount on the gear. I have 1961 150A with 5 inch wheels. Any members have some for sale or suggestions where to locate any?

Thanks
Richard

The first 99 of the 150A models had Goodyear brakes, after that they had Clevelands. Which do you have? The brackets and the fairings are different depending on the brakes. If yours has been converted to Clevelands they may require remounting to make the brackets fit, as it is possible to mount them different ways, incompatable with the fairings.

Do you already have the fairings? These are the fat, round fairings, not the pointy ones.

I have 15059023 converted to Clevelands, calipers mounted on the rear. Sounds like these brackets may be hard to find. If I could find someone that has the same setup a picture or a full size tracing would be helpful. I may end up making the brackets and a pattern would really help. Any other information would be most helpful

Thanks

Your serial is the 5th 1961 150A built. Has the old type landing gear box, but the larger D window, and other improvements.

Problem is, the brackets are not flat, at least not the ones used on the goodyear brakes but I think all of them for this type of fairing are formed and not flat.
