The top of drawing 7F8 shows the lower bearing plate (7F8-4) on the outside
of the skin (like your second picture).
I'm wondering about a wedge made out of 0.090" to the rear of 7F8-4 so that
the stiffener transitions rather than having 7F8-4 being punched?

Not sure which is correct but it can be built either of two ways. The first
shot (white paint) is of my unflown 701. I didn't build the section shown.
The second shot is of George Race's 701 N73EX (from his excellent DVD of
photos). You either have a gap between the floor and the plate or between
the plate and the channel. Unfortunately no one has a shot from the side to
show what happens between the channel and the plate. The shots in the Zenith
photo assembly guide from inside the fuselage don't appear to shot the
plate. So I guess it goes outside. I think I prefer it that way - like
George's and David's. But it is worth asking Zenith about. Let us know what
you find out.

Where does the Central Floor Stiffener (7F8-1) go in relation to the Front
Lower Bearing Plate (7F8-4)? Does 7F8-1 go below 7F8-2? That is what
drawing 7F10 seem to indicate. Won't there be a gap between the floor
(7F8-7) and 7F8-1 at the end of 7F8-4?

Craig,
It looks like George put a spacer between the Rear Lower Bearing (7F8-4) and
the Nose Gear Stops (7F8-6). I'm guessing that this was so the Nose Gear
Strut Assembly (7L1-1J) doesn't hit the stops before 7L1-1J rides in 7F8-6.
I made my own 7L1-1J and have the same issue. I figured I made 7L1-1J about
1mm too long (not much). I think John Marzulli has the same issue with his
kit. I'm trying to decide if (a) I leave it alone, or (b) I re-make 7F8-8 a
little higher, or (c) I put a spacer under 7L1-5J, or (d) I do what George
did.
Have other builders run into this?

Oh, one more thing. Aren't the bolts on 7F8-4 in George's picture too
short? BTW, on mine when I use AN3-10A (per plans) they seem too long.

I'm at this stage of building my 701 and I saw the same thing. Those 10's look

| Subject: | Spacer between 7F8-4 and 7F8-6? (was CH701 front |
lower bearing plate (7F8-4) location?)
You are correct Curt. I found that using the kit supplied parts, I was
concerned that the top strut cover, 7L1-5J, would be coming down on the top
support possibly bending or breaking the bolts that hold it in place. My
solution was to add a couple of .125 spacers to raise the top plate about an
1/8 of an inch above the top plate.
And yes, later I did put longer bolts through the bottom bracket with proper
thread extensions showing. I think somewhere on my DVD there are additional
pictures that show the longer bolts.

My problem is similar, but not the same.
The bungee cord is not under much tension, but full extension should not
cause any banging on the steering stops. I think a small spacer between the
stop plate and the bearing is still the solution in my case.
Thanks,

John,
Actually, the interference (banging) is when the front gear is fully
retracted as when in flight. What I was talking about was putting in a
spacer to make the stop plate (7L1-5J) higher. You are talking about making
7L1-5J lower in order to pre-load the bungee - correct? If you do that, the
Nose Gear Strut Assembly (7L1-1J) is going to be held up in flight by the
Stop Plate (7L1-5J) which will hit (i.e. rest on) the Upper Channel, top
support (7F7-1SP). As George was saying, you might bend 7F7-1SP or break
it loose.
Curt

I had the same problem with the "gap" in spite of the fact that I made the 7F8-6R&L
3 times. I made a 4th set which are custom fit and higher when I assembled
the strut. I did not like the gap which was about 3mm when the strut was sitting
in place.

Thanks George. I'm glad I asked about it. I'll wait until I start to fit
stuff together before I decide what to do. My stop plate just barely hits
the top support.

You could just file a ramp on the trailing edge of the plate. I don't think
you would have to take it down to a knife edge. I'd love to see a photo from
the side with all the rivets and bolts in to see what happened to the
channel.

The top of drawing 7F8 shows the lower bearing plate (7F8-4) on the outside
of the skin (like your second picture).
I'm wondering about a wedge made out of 0.090" to the rear of 7F8-4 so that
the stiffener transitions rather than having 7F8-4 being punched?

Not sure which is correct but it can be built either of two ways. The first
shot (white paint) is of my unflown 701. I didn't build the section shown.
The second shot is of George Race's 701 N73EX (from his excellent DVD of
photos). You either have a gap between the floor and the plate or between
the plate and the channel. Unfortunately no one has a shot from the side to
show what happens between the channel and the plate. The shots in the Zenith
photo assembly guide from inside the fuselage don't appear to shot the
plate. So I guess it goes outside. I think I prefer it that way - like
George's and David's. But it is worth asking Zenith about. Let us know what
you find out.

Where does the Central Floor Stiffener (7F8-1) go in relation to the Front
Lower Bearing Plate (7F8-4)? Does 7F8-1 go below 7F8-2? That is what
drawing 7F10 seem to indicate. Won't there be a gap between the floor
(7F8-7) and 7F8-1 at the end of 7F8-4?

Hi Curt:
Here is part of my picture, Nose Gear 2.jpg from the DVD
Note there is a very small tapered opening from the back of the bearing
plate. Also note the longer "final" bolts in the bearing mount with extra
spacer.
I am not sure what I am seeing in your picture. Looks like the floor pan is
sort of bent up away from the mounting bracket below it. Maybe just an
illusion the way the picture was taken. I don't see that same floor pan
warp in my picture, but it is taken from a slightly different direction.
Will keep looking to see if I have any better picture of the area.
George

BTW: Zenith "solved" this problem on the 601. The channel is wider than the
plate. So the plate fits inside the U of the channel. I wonder what they do
on the 750? Given the resemblance of the 750's firewall to the 601 I be it
uses the same approach.

Hi Curt:
Here I think is a better picture from a slightly different angle.
Everything is riveted together on this one.

That's what mine looks like. Right or wrong, I don't really see an alternative.
