Landing gear |

Puzzled over the attachment of the brake parts to the landing gear for some time. The plans are not clear in this area. I think that I have finally figured it out. Located the 2 odd screws that are 5/16 but go down to 1/4 on the threads. I had looked for a long time for them without success but found them tonight while looking for something else. I still need the nuts for the odd hex head screws. I also need to order some AN4-11A bolts from Vans to attach the brake units to the flanges that are held onto the landing gear by the odd screws. I located 3 of the bolts but need 3 more. I packed the bearings in the main wheels with Aeroshell 5 grease, as recommended. Attached the weldment to the nosegear leg with the AN5-17 bolt that I located after some searching. |
