Thanks in advance for any help with this. I recently brought in a large load of Beech 18 parts and there are some other parts mixed in.

Drag leg of some sort

North American inspection stamps but no part number

Tail gear...

Any thoughts?

Don't know about the rest, but bottom photo is BT-13/15 tail wheel, unless it doesn't have 63 or 74 parts number prefixes on it.

Thanks for that. There were a few BT-13 exhaust parts in the pile. I even found some exhaust segments for a B-25C!

Here is a tail wheel fork that is also unidentified. The tags were not original so no information there. I will post the part number when I get it but I figured someone might recognize it right off. Navy, solid wheel, carrier aircraft is as close as I can get.

Either F6F tailwheel, or F6U castering wheel- they look the same from a distance. What do the tags say?
