Brief Description:  Landing Skid Installation

Some owners report that the skids have a tendency to move around in the upper mounting sockets. One fix is to drill and tap two holes located around the lower outer diameter of each gear leg socket. After tightening down all of the bolts, I did not see much play in the sockets, but decided to add a single additional bolt hole at the lower portion of the socket. I installed the gear tube into the socket with a small amount of RTV sealant and after tightening the bolts the skids are rock solid.
