Hi

I'm installing the main gear hydraulics and seem to have a problem.
If I make the phenolic spacer for the back of the hydraulic cylinder 1.25"
then there is bad interference between the rod end and the 2 triangular
pieces attaching to the over center link when the wheel is in the down
position.

It seems I have to make the spacer 2.3" long, which will not clear the wheel
or space out the 2 triangular pieces.

Did anyone have the same problem, and is there a elegant solution.???

[That spacer should be about 2"-2.25" long.  It should not interfere with
your wheel.  The aft phenolic mounting plate runs about 1/2" forward of
the gear door cutout on my installation.     <Marv>    ]
