Does anyone know where I can get brake pads for my Classic IV? I do not have the split wheel but it looks like a Matco caliper but I cannot tell. The packing list just gives me the Skystar part number. Thanks. Jeff Classic IV

Call George at MAtcomfg.com

Or if you want to do what I have done is use automotive pads and drill them and rivet them on .
Works for me when in a bind. And I did a set in December and they got 10 hours now and never noticed any better or worse.
You only stopping a 1200 lb plane at 40 mph not a 4000 car from 75 mph although the pad area is smaller.

When you got them apart make sure the calipers slide on bushings easily.

I have a M III with the same setup. I called Matco and they knew what I needed and I also got an o-ring kit to do a rebuild at the same time.
the parts are cheap and they are great to deal with
