PA-18-150 Wing Rib Ship Set
Certified | 18 Gallon Fuel Tank | Both Wings
Our PMA-certified PA-18-150 (18 Gallon) wing rib sets are exact replicas of the original Piper Super Cub ribs — with a modern twist. Built using original Piper tooling and inspected with final go/no-go fixtures, each rib delivers precision fit and structural reliability.
We’ve made one meaningful improvement: the top cap strips are made with 0.016" aluminum instead of the original 0.012". This makes them more resistant to damage from snow removal and maintenance tools — a small change with a big impact on long-term durability.Fuel Tanks:The rib set is engineered to accommodate standard OEM 18-gallon fuel tanks. While it is specifically configured for this capacity, customers may choose to install FAA-approved alternatives, such as the Dakota 24-gallon or Atlee Dodge 30-gallon tanks. The rib structure itself remains designed to align with the original 18-gallon specifications.
