Brief Description:  Wheels and brakes

I started work on assembling the wheels and brakes to the landing gear legs. The manual and drawings are pretty scant on this so I spent a great deal of time studing the drawings to try to figure out what went where. I found that I needed torque plates from Grove to attach the brake calipers to the brake bushing, as I purchased my wheels and brakes from an abandoed project and the plates were not included. I was able to final drill the brake flanges, deburr and then bolt them to the axles. I also cut to length and deburred bolt spacers that will be used.
