The OLD kits had the bolts clocked differently on the two gear legs. I never could figure out why that was, either. I made my own brackets, and added little z-shaped "keepers" which locked around the inboard side of the gear leg on the upwind edge to make the installation more sturdy. It seemed to me that a strong crosswind could really grab those middle gear doors and possibly rip them off. Never heard of that happening, though...
