I had something like that for my C-170B back in the 70's; I think I got it from Univair. It was a simple "C" shape which slipped around the gear leg and it had a small "L" shaped piece welded to the bottom and cut at an angle, point down, to engage the depression in the top of the bottle jack. I had glued an old piece of inner tube to the inside to protect the paint. Allen G. Wiesner KR-2SS/TD S/N 1118 65 Franklin Street Ansonia, CT 06401-1240 (203) 732-0508 [email protected]
