Door latch and door stop

Post by Azpilot »

Does any body have a source for the 2 gear style door latch?


Looks like mine wore out a while ago, the wind caught the door and busted off the skycatch door stop.


I got the diagrams for it from here, but I can't find the latch.

I suspect you are asking about the rotary-gear latch, which is a Cessna 172 latch. Check with salvage yards.

Check with John Benham (C1). At one time John D had an STC for these latches.
