Why the nylon ball,
why not just a nice nylon/teflon block at the contact point amd don't worry too
much about the scrape ?

What I'm suggesting is a Nylon ball, about 2" in
diameter. It would be mounted on the nose of the Cozy in place of the
"hockey-puck". Should the gear fail (or, fail to be lowered)
the Nylon ball would allow the nose to "roll" rather than "scrape" down
the runway until the A/C could be stopped.
