I bought an RV-8 with some torn up wheel/pressure recovery pants about a year ago. They were bad enough that I just chucked 'em. I figure it's time to craft some new ones and take advantage of the reduced drag. I have all the components ready to fit over the wheels and start locating holes and align them, but I'm not sure how to safely get the longerons level given that I've got a fully built aircraft. Searching through the threads on here has revealed a lot of advice for builders in intermediate stages, less so for folks doing an alteration.
Anyone have any advice as to how to best accomplish this? Advice about the pants and associated intersection farings would be much appreciated too!
