RE: RV-7A wheel pant installation

Alright I know I wouldn't have this problem if I would have just built a real man/gals plane .....but....I am in the process of installating the rear wheel pant over the new style U-713C wheel pant bracket (plans set C1) on the front gear). Main wheels done and looking good.

The FWD opening of the AFT wheel pant just doen't want to go over the
F-713c bracket............I must admit I havent made the final cut for the wheel opening on the bottom of the pant...........

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The wheel pant is more narrow at the opening than further back. I had to pull it open a bit to get it over the bracket. Of course once the bracket is attached to the wheel pant, they will slide on and off together quite nicely.
