Manual Reference:  landing gear
Brief Description:  Put together three landing gear legs

I had a typical Van's experience with the Main Gear. The brakes shipped were not Cleveland Brakes, shown in the drawings. I could not figure out the orientation and how to put them in.

I lost a couple of days trying to puzzle them out. Then, after about 8 hours on the first leg, with the gear on and off about a dozen times - I finally figured it out.

Naturally the second gear leg only took less than an hour because I knew what I was doing.

I then worked the front gear leg without any problems. I couldn't find two 3/8 washers that are supposed to be Grade 8. They had some at lowes, but I think they are too large in diameter.

I will go to automated fasteners in the morning and pick up some smaller Grade 8 washers.

I am going to start the wheel farings tomorrow.
