Hi Robin:



You guys with the original kits were the true pioneers. In our case, a lot 

was done for us and the gear brackets came cad plated from the factory, 

presumably heated to eliminate hydrogen embattlement.



As I theorized on the webpage, I think the cracking here was in response to 

whatever force was causing the ears to bend inward. Perhaps we had a rough 

landing somewhere where that end of the gear slammed back and forth in the box? 

Hard to imagine, since we land on improved strips (except for once). 



What does that say about the attachment at the B rib? (There doesn't appear 

to be any slop in the gear, especially at the Outboard Attach Bracket.) I'm 

still scratching my head, trying to understand what caused the ears to bend.
