DRAG BRACE (P/N 16189) - As Removed

The 16189 drag brace is a landing gear component that resists fore-aft loads during aircraft operations. This steel assembly pivots on bushings at attachment lugs, providing over-center downlock stability. Installed between the trunnion and shock strut in retractable gear systems, the drag brace prevents gear creep during landing and taxi.

The hinge mid-span design allows controlled articulation while maintaining structural rigidity. Installation requires verification against the aircraft's Illustrated Parts Catalog and rigging per the maintenance manual to ensure proper load distribution and gear synchronization.
