Taking the steering arm, cut off the end of

the arm in the middle of the first hole.

After making sure the holes are aligned,

press the steel collar into the pocket in the

steering arm.

Thread the 6-32 x 3/16" socket head screw

in a few turns until it starts to thread into the

steel collar.

Make a 90º bend 1/4" from the end of the

Place the bent end of the wire onto the outer

hole of the steering arm. Secure it with a

snap nut and a drop of CA on the snap nut.

nosegear block, as shown.

Slide the nosegear wire up into the nosegear

block until the spring coil clears the bottom
