I have noticed that a lot of Legacy doors do this on retraction when
doing a gear swing.  Seems that with air loads it really isn't an
issue and the door opens smoothly.  SO don't so anything

I did a gear swing test on my Legacy this morning and found that the inner door actuator does not operate smoothly.  As the piston moves in or out of the actuator it acts like it is sticking.  It does open and close the door, but may be showing the signs of a problem.  The manufacturer name is Wolstenholme Contract Industries out of PA.  Before I contact them I want to check with the list to find what other Legacy owners have done in this situation....cause for concern?  Overhaul? Replace?
