Hi
RV8 Stock Vans landing gear legs
Hopefully this is a quick one. I'm at the stage of setting up the landing gear and drilling the longerons for the outer wear plates. The outer wear plates however don't lie flat against the longeron and can rock slightly. Is the normal procedure to pull the wear plate flat against the longeron when torquing the landing gear bolts? The steel is VERY strong so 'adjusting' it to lie flat against the longeron doesn't seem practical.
Just wanting to check before I drill...
Thanks for your help
