I suggest that you also remove the engine. When the Little Beast was delivered here for repairs, and I removed the front deck, I found that the firewall was separating from the cross member shelf. I am certain that it was caused by the long trip with the engine on the plane. I will never move one again without removing the engine first.
See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics See you at the 2009 - KR Gathering in Mt. Vernon, Ill There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for Flying has begun. Daniel R. Heath - Lexington, SC -----Original Message----- Moral of that story: If you are going to trailer an aircraft, fasten the tires, not the airframe to the trailer so the spring gear and tires can do what they were designed to do. And use a trailer appropriate for the job. You might not shake an engine loose on that one trip to the airport, but how long will it take after you have been flying a while after some needless abuse?
