  Greg,
  The gear can only be adjusted properly when powered hydraulically.  When you
push the gear up instead of having the hydraulics pull it up, you can't remove
all the backlash in the system.  If the wheel fit by hand, it will fit
hydraulically, but you will have to adjust the length of the cylinder. This
applies to the main gear as well.

Well, I though I had achieved something
  special as I had manually raised my nose gear and my door shut completely
  without the bubble in it. But-----now that I have jacked the plane up and
  run the system up and down to get all the air out, under power, the nose
  gear doesn't go up as far and the door won't close all the way!!!! It hits
  the tire. I'm planning on investigating to see why the difference but it
  looks like I, too, will have the bubble!
