Is the gear assembly on all the Grob 102 series of gliders, the same. I am asking about the struts and mounts, not the wheel.

Thanks,

You're probably asking whether the cast aluminum forks and related kit are common, right? I know from looking for cracks in a number of Astir CS and Astir CS 77s that they looked similar (and are usually cracked!). Never got under the covers on a Grob 102 Astir Standard or the other later models. I would just email the new (i.e. 10 years ago) TC holder which is Linder in Germany. They seem to be quite responsive and helpful. http://www.ltb-lindner.com/grob-saleplanes.html
