Hi Netters: I looked in the archives and would like some direction on Nose gear alignment.
I have installed the Nose-Gear ass'y and GP 5 pt mount on my KR but now wish to locate the holes in the front strut accurately. I was going to level the craft "left to right" using a self-leveling "Laser Level" and then turn the nose strut in its reciever until it is perpendicular to the vertical "Lazer Cross-hair" so I can mark where it must be drilled for attachment into its receptical. --Does this seem like a good proceedure? After that is done the instructions say something about cutting off the nose-gear strut so the the nose gear will allow the plane to sit level.. My question is methodology so as not to make a mistake here and also drilling the Mtg Bolt in the correct place to avoid the potential for "Shimmy"? Thanks in advance. Don Lively Burlington IA 52601
