Why don't you use it and ask them? Perhaps worth noting is that Zenair provides a firewall forward package for the Strauts in its 601 http://www.zenithair.com/zodiac/6-subaru.html Perhaps John Larsen will comment.

Oh, by the way, we'll also have to learn to give right pedal, instead of left, when we take off, due to the right-hand prop! :-) Cheers, Michel do not archive ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 06:12:18 PM PST US From: "jdmcbean" Subject: RE: Kitfox-List: Jabiru engines --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "jdmcbean" Yes, There is a Series 5 with the 3300 in Phoenix Blue Skies John & Debra McBean "The Sky is not the Limit...

I will have to face this issue sooner or later with wings already closed and beautifully painted. It seems like a crime to have to open them up, but that's what it looks like I'll have to do to be safe.

Cost just $25 for the wheel and a few more dollars for the bearing and oversize washers. Very cheap and a much softer ride. It takes out that annoying pavement vibration. Works well off field also.
