Tired of "soft" worn out steering rods? Replace them with improved McFarlane FAA-PMA approved steering rods!
Maintenance Tip
How do I know if my steering rods need to be replaced?
These bad boys can take the abuse!
The steering rod boots on the Cessna aircraft have a big job to do. They must keep out exhaust gases and prevent smoke and fumes from entering the cockpit in the event of an engine fire while tolerating the constant air pulses caused by the rotating propeller.
McFarlane steering rod boots are black Kevlar/fiberglass blend fabric. The fatigue resistance of Kevlar is uniquely mated with the fire resistance of fiberglass.
Cheaper to replace than clean corrosion, prime, and paint the original!
Doublers are alodined, primed, and painted to save installation time.
McFarlane 150 thru early 182 series steering rod boots are black Kevlar®/fiberglass blend fabric. The fatigue resistance of Kevlar is uniquely mated with the fire resistance of fiberglass.
Doubler for 150-152 aircraft is now FAA-PMA approved at less than 1/2 the price!
Each kit contains two boots and two doublers.
