5. The wheel pants have the 1/2” hole predrilled in
each pant. The 1/8” hole for the mounting bolt must be
drilled.
6. Block the tail of the plane up so that the fuse-
lage is sitting level. Put the wheel inside the pant and
slide both on the axle together.
While holding the wheel pant level, mark the
location of the mounting bolt by using a 1/8” drill and
inserting it through the predrilled hole on the landing
gear leg
7. Remove the wheel pant and drill a 5/32” hole
at the location you marked. Insert the blind nut on
the inside and pull it tight using the 4-40 mounting
bolt. Lock in place with CA glue being careful not to
get it in the threads.
8. Reinstall the wheel and wheel pant and retain
with the other 4mm wheel collar. Align the wheel pant
on the gear leg with the hole you drilled for the blind
nut. Install the 4-40 x 1/2” socket head screw.
Don’t forget to use locktite to make sure it does not
come loose.
Repeat for other wheel pant.
