>Greetings,
>It is time to replace the nose gear gas strut on my 320.  I have followed
the advice of several of you on the list and purchased the >strut (9416K155)
and end fittings (9416K84) from McMaster Carr.
>The problem I have run into is that the end fittings have a hole of 5/16"
diameter and the bolts are AN4 bolts (1/4" dia).

Dan,
I found my bushings at a local hardware store.  Bushing stock that you need
is quite common if you can find a real hardware store.
Aircraft Spruce has Part No. 03-16600 which has a 3/16 ID that you can drill
out to 1/4.
