ORIGINAL: HalH

I have started the Sierra Precision retract installation. First it was necessary to narrow the blocks in the kit so the retract would fit between them. I also cut the height of them so the retract fit down in the wing about a 1/4" below the sheeting . The gear door is one of Dions. The black material is thin carbon fiber mat to provide some strength for the sheeting. I also added some short ribs under the sheeting alongside the area of the strut.
Hal,
What size wheels are you using? Also, did you get the stock Sierra retract strut length or did you custom order with shorter struts?
Thanks,
John
