Default Main wheel track width for transport

Hi all,

Need to move an RV6A and I am trying to find a trailer wide enough.

Would anyone know the width from outside edge to outside edge of the main undercarriage (without pants)?

I have heard you can 'strap in' the undercarriage legs?

Thanks,

Bob

Hi,

Based in Oxford here. Thanks for the link, but I have an issue with an RV6A. I measured some today and they all seemed to have wheel width of 88" - not usre if I can pull the wheels in a bit or not. But have figured out that I can hang the wheels over the edge of a trailer...
