need help with landing gear rubber pads
Posted on January 8, 2012 at 6:02pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
Hi all, after 6 landings, I found that the rubber pads between the landing gear and fuse, have crushed, to the extend that they snapped, in looking at forums I have found nothing on the subject, when I googled, I found something, they talked about using tyre rubber for new pads, wWould apreciate to know if anyone has had the problem, and a fix for it....
regards Jim.

Hi Jim,
Yours isn't shabby either ! Looking pretty good too ! I like that we can do this ourselves.
