die spring suspention

[rocket 204]

hello has anyone heard of or built a die spring suspention that would replace just the bungee shock in the pa 22 or 20 and still utilise the original gear ,i have a drawing for the one the guys build for the cubs ,but i thought one could be built that would fit in where the bungee shock fits Rocket 204

I've seen them on wagabonds. I think wag aero sells the parts.

i think the wagabond uses the cub style suspention, what i was thinking of building is a replacement for the bungee hydrasorbe used in the pa 22 -20 and i was wondering if anyone has done this or seen it done

Marty 57 has used springs on his Wagaero 2+2. Have a look here - may give you some ideas:-

Wagabond can use either style. One of my friends has the die springs on his, another has bungees. I used the univair gear on mine.
