The ADS-B rule is the same as the Transponder rule.

The WAFs are properly aligned with the spar on both sides.
Also, everything is already glassed.
Much easier to keep the spar hole pattern unchanged, vs cut up and redo the
stub wings in order to redrill the spars.

If it is Diehl gear, the mains will be composite & bolted to 2 big aluminum

If it is Grove gear, the mains will be metal 'spring' legs like a Cessna.
