      Not sure what no one would ever see=2C  if I cant see it. What is it. I did
       notice the shock absorbers that are for the AA and not the AG. And cant se
      e clearly enough what is behind the shock mount. Is that an inprovised seal
       or somthing? 
      Got me stumped

      The steps were optional equipment on the Grummans as well as many other ite
      ms. If the part number starts with 580xxxx=2Cl then typically it was an opt
      ion for the aircraft.

      Absolutely.  Look at your equipment list.  The steps are shown as an 
      optional item and can be removed with a log book entry and weight and 
      balance change.

      How much speed can you pickup by removing the steps and light?...I have been down
      this road before and found very little result for the money invested...Seriously
      the steps produce that much drag?...Dick
      
      If you want more speed at the same rpm I'd go with the 63" pitch as that was
      the standard cruise prop. Most typical Tigers can turn 2700 rpm full
      throttle down low and even higher up. The 62" pitch will turn 30-40 rpm
      more at full throttle but be 2-3 knots slower or thereabouts. And if you
      ever take you steps off and go to the flush beacon cap or add a PF exhaust
      you will want the higher pitch prop for sure.

      Don't know about the shocks.  They have 2004 dates on them.  and they aren't 
      broken.  they both work.  that's rare.  If they are the wrong shocks, it came in
      
      that way.

      It might be worth a knot or two to remove the steps.  Is it worth it?  Probably
      
      (k)not.

       Not sure how the 2004 dates since Stabilus hasn't supplied them since the 
      70's. If that is an early AG then all bets are off. I had been trying to ge
      t them produced since way before 2004. Countless calls to them over in Germ
      any and finally gave up in 2006 on ever getting them reproduced.
