Mike,
There are 2 gas struts on the 6, one on the gear and another in the linkage on the left side (?) that is almost impossible to see or to get to. This is the one that should be replaced with an aluminum bar. If the handle and gear positions, don't agree, something is bent. Check the drive arm at the gear box. The last time I saw your problem (fuselage not high enough when lowering the gear) the gear collapsed on take off. Good luck, JJ BTW, you 3 drivers can check the condition of your gas strut by trying to collapse the gear by applying forward pressure on the drag links. It should only move about an inch and then spring right back to over-center. Do this check with the fuselage in your trailed dolly, please. JJ Sinclair |
