'If you are careful with your part numbers, check ebay frequently and just search
310 brake and if any are avialable at the time, they'll pop right up. I've seen them sell
for as low as $500 in decent shape. About four or five sets have sold over the last year
that way.

Re: Clevelands for a 24W
'Yes, used is attractive.....but without personal inspection, or
trustworthy seller, or dirt cheap (under $100) it's risky at best. If
you locate a set from Ebay remember, they came off of a hot, fast,
heavy , hi energy twin. As such they are often driven to the deck at
100kts and pour on the brakes. Bear in mind too....they came off of
an aircraft that for some reason is in a junk yard....a retractable
gear aircraft that is in a junk yard. Was it gear upped?
I bought a used set once for $650 from
an established aircraft salvage operation. The rotors were grooved,
burnt, under min thickness and scrap. The bearings were corroded and
brinnelled. All the wheel screws and nuts were of question. The
linings were in need of replacement. The lining screws were heavily
worn and needed replacement. The caliper phenolic insulators were
chafed and shot. The wheels, caliper, and torque plate were
servicible, but the torque plate bushings were nearly toast. So in
the end, I was looking at two expensive rotors, new bearings, and
soon torque plates. Those are BIG rotors too...not a pidley 6" Piper
toy. The other unknown is the soundness of wheels. Heavy (relatively)
twins can and do crack wheels. Better have, at minimum, a dye
penetrant check made. I gave up and sold the wheels to a fellow who
was going the 6" rotor inside the 10" wheel route. I bought a new set
and kept the remaining parts as backups (read that as shelf
decorations).
Personally, if I wanted the 310 kit ( and it works fine, it is a
good conversion) I would bite the bullet and buy new. After what it
could take to bring a used set to halfway serviceability (and they
are
still used) you may only need to cough up another $500 to have a new,
traceable, warranted, latest revision level, known history set.
New, by the way, at Chief is $2100+, Aircraft Spruce @$2300+ (and
they get them from Aviall).
Them ol' expander tubes still look mitee good!

'Tom,
In some information received from Cleveland they suggested using their
40-256 Wheel assembly and the 30-195 brake assembly This is a two puck system and I believe it has been used on the "ag-cat They have a 800 number give them a call 800-272-5464 They can give you the information.
