Began installing nose gear
Today I began installing the nose…then I ran into yet another snag. Van’s sent me the wrong length bolt for one of the parts. In the hardware kit they mean to send me an AN7-21 bolt, but in it’s place they sent me and AN7-20. Unfortunately the bolt was just to short for the application. I placed an order with aircraft spruce. It should ship out tomorrow and I should have the correct bolt by Tuesday.
Nose gear mounted


Fabricated a spacer per the plans

These are the elastonomers that are used to provide a suspension for the nose gear. Looks like there off a Mooney M20. This is way more high tech then the older model RVs.
