The DC-3's drag link was is welded tube, as was the C-53's. The C-47
switched to a cast drag link to speed production.

The others are actually C-47s (doors and landing gear are different from
DC-3).

How is the landing gear of a C-47 different from a DC-3? As far as I have
know
they are identical. Some versions of the later models of DC-3 had doors
to
cover the gear but they had a different designation in the military as
well.
