In the next year, I'd like to replace the Cleveland brake disk (rotor) on my RF-5b.

My wheel is a Cleveland 40-76B. The Cleveland documentation I have lists this as a nose wheel and no specific brake disk is listed. In related materials they list multiple disks that can be used with the wheel -- but all have different offsets, etc. I don't see a disk listed in the parts list for the RF-5.

Does anyone know which disk should be used with the RF-5b?

Thanks.

Hi

I'm the current owner of N99809 and after an exhaustive search I determined the best fit for my wheel was a 164-00300 Disk which is a bit unique. It's from an after market Parker/Cleveland kit to up grade an Ercoupe.

These planes very a lot and modifications, so beware and check dimensions.

Works great

Life is good, Steve
