Spring gear bolts

Post by Richard DeCiero » Fri Feb 17, 2012 5:57 pm

Hello,
Does anyone know if there is a preferred installation direction for the
outboard spring gear mounting bolts? The manual inserts them from the
bottom. This put the nut on the inside of the fuselage. It looks like it
would be easier for future removal/replacement of the bolts if they were
installed from the inside of the fuse with the nuts on the bottom.
Thank you,
Rick D.

Hi There,
You really need to feed the bolts in from the bottom, if you
dont it would be very difficult to replace those bolts (especially the rear
ones) at a latter date.

Cheers
