3.

Install each axel using the locking nut. Be

careful not to over tighten the nut, it looks like

a large bolt but it has been drilled out for the

axel and can be broken if too much torque is

applied.

4.

Install one wheel collar on each axel with 3/16”

between the collar and the axel nut. This will

space the wheel in the center of the wheel

pant.

5.

The wheel pants have the 1/2” hole predrilled

in each pant. The 1/8” hole for the mounting

bolt must be drilled.

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.

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 axel 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
