Colemill Announces Immediately Availability of Installation of the Main Landing Gear Inner Door Removal Kit STC # SA00555DE  Colemill now offers the installation of STC SA00555DE to remove the troublesome inboard main landing gear doors, hinges, actuators and hoses on the Piper PA-31 and PA-31T series aircraft. Here is what you get with this installation: 35-40% faster retraction/extension time resulting in reduced drag during critical operations Reduced wear and tear on hydraulic system components Elimination of AD 2000-25-01 and costly hinge replacements Reduced maintenance costs with elimination of  doors, actuators and hoses Increased payload No performance loss No noticeable increase in wind noise The doors are replaced by a fairing that seals the tire/wheel assembly when retracted.  An extended uplock hook assembly is added and the outboard gear door assembly is doubled, allowing the gear to be extended at 180 MPH on all models, as on the later model Navajos and Cheyennes. Downtime for installation of this kit on your aircraft is minimal, typically 2-3 working days.  This can easily be accomplished during your next annual or other maintenance with no additional loss of use. The full price for the installation of this kit on your Navajo is only $5,900 complete.  To schedule your installation, call 800-525-4114.
