Can anyone confirm if this is an F4 Corsair main wheel ?

It is marked Goodyear USA HD 32 x 8



I understand from lists that I can see that the wildcat also had the same size wheel but had a cover on the front.

I was told it was from a Grumman Avenger but Ic ant see this design wheel on an Avenger.

I picked it up from Shropshire UK this week so must be from a Royal Navy aircraft.

Hi Brian,

After a quick check. According to parts books, Corsair wheel part number 530645. Hellcat wheel part number 530204. Don't know if they are interchangeable.


Take care,

Eric

Thanks Eric so that says it is a Hellcat.

Thanks for your help.
