Remove the pant and use a 9/64" drill bit to drill the
location marked in the previous step.
Step 6
Install a 4-40 blind nut into the hole from the inside
of the pant. The nut will be drawn into the plywood
later in this section.
Step 7
Install the following items onto the axle: wheel pant,
3/16" wheel collar, wheel then another 3/16" wheel
collar. It will be necessary to fit the parts inside the
wheel pant and slide them onto the axle.
Note: It may be necessary to drill the hole in
the wheel to fit onto the axle.
Step 7
Secure the pant in place using a 4-40 x 1/2" socket
head screw, #4 lock washer, and #4 washer. Use
threadlock on the screw to prevent it from coming
loose in flight.
Step 8
Center the wheel in the wheel pant and tighten the
collars to prevent the wheel from moving side to
side. Use threadlock on both set screws.
Step 9
Repeat Steps 1 through 8 for the remaining
wheel pant.
