Just acquired a Model II Kitfox and will need to replace the landing gear Bungees. Has anyone made up their own from bungee cord that is sold by the foot. If yes, what diameter did you use....the current cords appear to be about 5/8" diameter. Thinking the old ones are somewhat stretched out to use for patterns, so how long do they need to be loop-to-loop if it's practical to make them rather than just buying them from Kitfox? I think they get $85 or $95 for a pair.

Thanks, in advance.
