I purchased a 360, did not build it. The previous owner showed me 2 times a
gear free fall. Twice since then I tried but could not get it to come down. I
finally got my jacks built last week so I jacked it up to see what gives. The
left inboard door was holding up the wheel. It appeared there was still some
pressure in the door strut that the spring could not override. When I would
bleed a little pressure, the gear came down. After I lubed everything related
to the gear, it works OK now. Any comments?
Jim
