We only have certain replacement parts like what you have already found available from the manufacturers. They often don't offer every part like you are stating as a replacement part. You would be mixing parts and rigging at best.

I recommend replacing your landing gear with the Stromberg Carlson Electric Landing Gear Set - Weld On - 34-7/8" Lift - 6,500 lbs # LG-3. This will give you a completely new landing gear system that is confirmed to work and is under warranty.
