* Step 2 - The hole in the landing gear mount might need to be enlarged a bit to 7/16 to make the elbow fitting go through. Works best with a 7/16 reamer (e.g. $21 at [https://www.yardstore.com/reamer-chucking-7-16 Yardstore]).<br>The elbow fitting doesn't quite stick out enough to get a wrench on it when torquing the nuts. Consider adding a AN960-716 / NAS1149F0763 washer sneaked in between the bottom skin and the weldment so that the washer sits between the fitting and the weldment on the bottom side.<br>If you are working alone, it works well to use heavy duct tape and fixate a wrench on the bottom skin to hold the elbow fitting in the right direction when torquing the nuts. | * Step 2 - The hole in the landing gear mount might need to be enlarged a bit to 7/16 to make the elbow fitting go through.
