Exclamation RV-8 Grove gear installation with Pics
Can someone provide a well documented video or pic gallery of the start to finish install of Grove landing gear for a RV-8 Quick build fuse?

Thanks

John

John, there are quite a few posts on this subject if you do a search. Looks like you are local and we are getting ready in a few weeks to put our -8 project on its gear. They have already been measured and drilled so just need to be bolted on. You are welcome to come over and take a look and see what we did. I'm at GAI.
