This weekend I installed the new improved version of the A model nose gear. I modified the gear leg myself. Was not an easy job but doable. What I was really worried about was cutting off the 1" after threading it. As much work as it took to thread the gear leg I figured it the hard leg would turn my metal cutting bandsaw blade into a butter knife. It turned out to be the other way around, the gear leg was like butter to the blade. Three minutes and the 1" was gone. I sure wish the threading had been as easy.
What really bummed be out was after all was said and done my max speed stayed the same. I figured for all that work I should have gained at least 5 knots![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
