I did work for a landing gear manufacturer in the 90s, that company changed names many times over the decades that is now part of Collin’s Aerospace. My time there was my first project management unsupervised early in my former career. I did work on the overhead conveyors and paint and oven systems, also a first in using 3D design software at that time which was fun Matthew Kane I'm Dyslexic, what's an error to you is not to me

I was trying to obtain a component maintenance manual for a CRJ-200 pilot seat. It was originally manufactured by Goodrich, which merged with BE Aerospace, which merged with Collins Aerospace who now provide parts support.

March 13, 20242 yr My guess is a bearing failure. Causes might be: worn beyond service limit lubrication failure bearing manufacture off-spec bearing not properly installed in operator's wheel and tire shop bearing seal failure allowing water/foreign object failure to apply specified pre-load or running load during wheel installation. scott s. .
