Manual Reference:  Page 8-5
Brief Description:  Landing gear box assembly #6

Clecoed the bulkheads to their respective angles and used the squeezer to rivet the angles to the bulkheads. Backriveted the nutplates on one gear tower and squeezed the other tower.

Riveted the F-802C's to both bulkheads. Had to remove two rivets as a result of smilies.

Once the towers were riveted, I gave them a quick spray with primer.

The weldments were then put into postion, bolted inplace and the then forward bolt hole through the foot angle was drilled to #12.

All bolts put in place, torqued, and torque seal applied.

These were actually fun to do!
