Subject: Zenith601-List: Grove Main Gear Support
From: "lwinger" <larrywinger@gmail.com>


When I purchased my Grove main landing gear, I was told I needed main gear supports
from Zenair in Canada, since they supply them to AMD.  Now that I'm at that
point, I can't say that I understand how they mount.  Do they work in conjunction
with Zenith 6-B-11-4 (welded main gear attachment) or replace it?  Does
anyone have any drawings.  Picture attached. 

Thanks.

I'm not 100% sure but I believe it replaces the piece of aluminum angle that is
used with the normal gear. Those welded on pieces allow for the smaller (front
to rear width) gear.

The piece in the background goes on the bottom of the fuselage then the gear is
sandwiched between it and the pieces in the foreground.

Is that clear as mud? :)

After posting my question, I basically figured out what you just described.
Now I just need to determine if the welded-on spacer goes toward the front
or rear of the channel.

Thanks, Gig.
