Upon reflection of my Nose Gear fitting, I decided to wrap the NG with 1/8" rubber sheet material to prevent the metal on metal contact. So the NG needed to be wrapped and the fitting adjusted to go around the NG plus rubber sheet. Then the fitting was painted and installed.
Also, mounted the battery box bracket
Spent some time reviewing the fuel plumbing diagrams to determine where I will drill the fuel line holes in the cabin.
