My nosewheel spat is cracking badly along the aluminium angle brackets. I have only made a few landing on grass, but acknowledge that a couple have been on long grass, dry weeds etc.

I propose to handle this by riveting doublers onto the top faces of the angle brackets, but I guess there's a risk it will just move the problem elsewhere.
