T-28 landing gear
On my T-28 one of the main landing gears was out of alignment. I mounted it anyway and you can see the results. I took it off and with two pliers bent it back into proper shape - CAUTION that shinny metal landing gear was bent back into shape WAY TOO EASILY!
So a word to the wise......land gently

RE: T-28 landing gear
If it bent BACK into place with little effort, the metal may have fatigued under stress.
I would recommend getting some piano wire and bending a new set of gear if this has happened.
Otherwise the gear is likely to break the next time.
