Mike,
Try www.treetopflyers.com.
I think someone on there can tell you where to get
them but I also believe that you can just use a piece
of radiator hose. I have a set of 1500A for my Champ
that I will be trying out this coming winter.

Thanks, but I didn't have much luck there. You may be right about the
radiator hose. I was also thinking maybe machine one out of plastic, but
still need something that will crush when tightened in place.

Mike,

Sorry I gave you the wrong addess, it is:
www.treetopflyers.org (I wrote .com not .org)

Do a search on axles and it will come up. If I recall
there is a thread stating you must have solid axles
and not the hollow ones. Also try Aero Ski Mfg Co. in
Brooten, MN (aeroski@tds.net)(320-346-2285) they sell
them I believe. I am bringing my skis there to get rig
when I get back.

Good Luck,
Keith

but I picked up a Wag-Aero catalog for something else and on page 26 they
sell "rubber ski bushing"s. Part #M-350-008

http://store.wagaero.com/advanced_searc ... =1&x=3&y=6
