Tonight I torqued the NAS bolts on the 803 gear leg attach bracket per specs (20 foot pounds in 5 pound increments).
Once torqued, plans call for a 1/32 inch gap between the 803 attach bracket and 805 plate. Unfortunately, my gap is close to zero.
Note that I have the Grove gear.
I would be interested in knowing how others made out in this area, particularly anyone with the Grove gear.
Did you have to mill/file down your 803 attach brackets to get the requisite 1/32 clearance?
Any gotchas to watch out for?
Thanks in advance for your comments.
