Webco, Aircraft Spruce, wherever. They are not expensive -- less than $20 each. The part number is 8097.

Buy 2... and dont't buy for next years annual because they get stale sitting on the shelf!...Ok not stale but the rubber does have
a cure date and you want the freshesh bungees for the best performance.

One other thing if you don't have a bungee tool Spruce sells the bogart model. There are other models out there that do the job as well as
the home made ones that are just as good, but for convenience the Bogart model is a good choice.

Randy,

I know the AD is every 3 years but after reading Hans Neubert's study, we replace ours every year as they are not two expensive.
