Brief Description:  Install Right Wheel Pant Bracket

I was originally going to leave the wheel pants off while breaking in the engine but decided since it will still be a while before I dig the plane out of the basement I'd install the gear leg fairings and wheel pants while I have the time.

I started by jacking up the right gear leg, cutting the safety wire on the caliper bolts and removing them to allow the wheel to slide down the support shaft and out of the way. The wheel pant bracket was then installed on the caliper bracket using the spacers I made quite some time ago. These will provide the necessary offset from the wheel/rotor for the bracket.
