View Full Version : Tail Dolly Latch
Does anyone know of a US source for the standard latch used on most
sailplane dollies. This is the adjustable pull down latch.
Thanks

McMaster.com, page 2897; search their online catalog for "adjustable

Or if locally you have a heavy truck supply house, where 18 wheelers
get their parts, they are used extensively in "on highway" tractors
and trailers.

Tom;
You can buy these at hardware/building stores. I have seen them at
Lowes and OSH and Home Depot...

Tom:
I went to the local ski shop and they gave me two buckles off broken ski
boots. These ski-boot buckles are superior to the original buckles on my
tail dolly.
