I was just going to post a message on the list about this, to see what solutions people had. The problem is not the pant.....it is the clamp. The deal is, the only hose clamps I can find in a big enough size to go around the nose strut and fairing are all 1/2 inch wide. Vans calls out a 3/8 inch wide clamp. I called Van's on this, after searching all the hardware stores, and the aircraft supply catalogs. The only place I have not checked is McMaster-Carr. Van's didn't have an answer, other than what I'd already tried. He said it shouldn't be a problem to find narrow hose clamps. I said, fine, you guys find them, and include them in the kit. Bottom line is, the pant and fairing fit fine, we just need a clamp that is narrow enough and has a small enough worm drive so it won't hit the inside of the front of the nose pant when the gear pivots. I'll post this to the two lists and see what we stir up. Gary ----- Original Message ----- From: Andy Karmy To: rv9er@3rivers.net Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2003 4:05 PM Subject: Nose wheel pant? Hey Gary, I'm having a hard time getting the nosewheel pant to work out. Have you fit that part yet? I finished mounting the pant and everything was fine until I tried to install the nose gear leg fairing. Seems the hoseclamp at the bottom is too high (when pressed all the way down) so it apears that I got the pant mounted too low (by about 3/16") so now I can't hide the clamp inside the pant... Did yours work out, or have you done it yet? - Andy --- Version: 6.0.431 / Virus Database: 242 - Release Date: 12/22/02 ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 10:22:51 PM PST US From: "Gary" Subject: RV9-List: Clamps for nose strut fairing --> RV9-List message posted by: "Gary" Andy......looks like McMaster Carr can help us out. They have 5/16 inch wide stainless hose clamps all the way up past 2 inches. The 1 1/4 inch size is around $5 for a package of ten. Go to http://www.mcmaster.com/ and search for hose clamps, worm drive. Gary ---
