Pawnee landing gear

We have fitted cable restraining straps to our two Pawnees... They save the plane and prop in most cases with this or a strut-end failure (of which we have had a couple)..... Craig Craig, what strength cable did you use and where did you find the drawings or photo o exactly where to run the cable? From crop dusters? Any help is appreciated. My Pawnee bolts sheared (actually broke) and I know of another Pawnee that also had the very same happen. This was years ago. We change the bolts now...often. I have always wanted to put the cable around the top of the gear, but never researched it, so thanks for rattling the chain. Jayne
