Cyclic....
On the front retract....you have to hold the rod from "riding up".
It has to be kept "low" in that stearing slot in the nose wheel.
If it is allowed to ride-up.....the wheel will twist and jam up in the wheel-bay....when retracting....(low, meaning towards center-line of plane...when working on it )
Also...grind nice "flats" on the struts, and axles...and replace those metric allens with some better screws....( you can't get 'em tight enough to keep the wheels from twisting all the time).
Talk later...Dave.
