Does anyone know where I can get a set of reasonably priced
Navajo Rams Horn control Yokes? Preferably with trim switch and
autopilot disconnect & PTT.

Thanks,
Gary

I think Matt Kurke has a set. If not, he'll probably know where to get a set.

You might start with the usual salvage yards too.... Matt may have some, but he didn't for quite a while.

I just bought a pair of "new" style Comanche yokes from Matt. He stripped and powder coated them twice without charging me anything more because the first time they weren't up to his specs. Look great now!

Thanks for Info .

Jay, I haven't heard from Matt yet but you say he reconditions them as well?
Sounds good....I hope he has a second set.
Did you get them with trim switches installed?
And lastly what did you end up paying for them?

Thanks,

Gary

The yokes were stripped (bead blasted) primed, baked to make sure there was no residue or moisture to interfere with the powder coating and then powder coated. I picked a glossy black finish, others are available. We talked about switches, but to give me some flexibility Matt shipped them with just plain end plates, we'll do the switches when we install them. He also included new roll pins and screws.

I think pricing is dependent on what Matt pays for them and how much work needs to be done, so I'll let him quote. BTW, I think he's still traveling on his West coast, migrant airplane worker odyssey.

Dose any one know if the Rams horn yokes for a PA-31T cheyenne will also
fit the PA-30. The numbers are almost the same 43052-007, as opposed to 43052-004.
I measured the tube and the OD is approx (just eyeballed with a tape measure) 1 5/8, inner diameter is 1 1/2.

Thanks

Yes, Matt Kurke has them in his 400....
