Regarding the nosewheel steering cable .......... Wondering what the best method/technique is of attaching the cables to the steering arm. Had planned on placing the cable through the hole and then looping it back around (and crimping a small piece of brass tubing to hold it). I am concerned that this small loop will rotate/kink as the strut retracts and then extends. Is there a better way ? Thanks. Bob
Bob,
I'll assume your using the kit supplied strut...

I put a dab of silicone sealer on the loop and let it dry in the "gear down" position. This keeps those little buggers in place and from kinking.
