Best source I know of is Beegles in Greeley, next to my hangar row. If they don't have it, they are likely to know who will. Get ahold of Scott Mauch, their general manager. Beegles main number is 970 353-9200.

Thanks Cary I called them axed for Scott, no return call but he's busy. They're still spending the money I payed them for the gearbox repair they did for me a couple Years ago. We did a repair. Got it fit last night only took 3 beers.

Re: Door Hinge C180/C182

One of those flat hinges was replaced on my 180, the previous owner told me they fabricated it out of flat material and formed the hingesegments around a pin. I'd give that a try before ponying up several hundred bucks for an official replacement of something that simple.
