>Once again I have broken a wheel pant mounting bracket. This makes at least
ten times they have broken and each time I am paying around 10 dollars to

Hi Mark
6061T6 means 6061 has been strengthened by tempering to T6 condition,
Does anyone know where I could aquire replacement clips for the floating disc's

contact the manufacturer for me, but even they didn't have any available.

I'm not sure if you're talking about nose wheel (which I don't have) or main
