missed the short tubes, I guess. The Gordon Mohr fittings I used are 1" and
they extend down the top of the leg about 4". The lower part is without
reinforcement. After I hear from some of the "SME's" here on the list I may
have to retrofit the lower ends with some tubing, not a big job. though.
Thanks Ken

Never heard of that Craig??
However the upgrade to 1650 lb did involve increasing the main gear leg
to 1.25" square tube and inserting short 1" square tube pieces in the
top end to match the width of the fuselage brackets.

to be a doubler (a second square tube) inside the main gear leg. I have
kit #207, purchased originally in 1992. I looked in my 1998 version of
the manual and it lists this part. My kit inventory list doesn't list
it. Does anyone have info on this? Should I be finding a tube to put
inside mine? Sounds like I need to but I haven't seen a "doubler"
mentioned on this site that I can recall. Anyone? Craig
