I was wondering if anyone could identify these aircraft parts.

Just looking at their beefiness and with them being a mirror-image set, I would venture to guess a portion of the landing gear. I have no idea what part of the gear though.

Part of a control surface linkage? I'd guess the square hole slides over some square part, the control rod attaches to the bottom fork and the curved cutout has some sort of track bearing. Could be some sort of engine part too. Boost control? Prop pitch linkage component? Since we don't know the scale it is a little tricky.

That's a pretty good guess Airdogge. They are landing gear parts for the Thunder Mustang. I can't remember the correct name of the part but i was able to save 2 sets from the scrap barrel at work. We manufactured some of the parts when they were still in Nampa. These apparently were left over inventory being cleared out. Does anyone know anybody that might have use for these parts?

Heh..I guess it helps being a Tool & Die machinist since '78.. Still, it was a lucky guess.
