Default RE: CMP 80

youll need access to a tig welder.....because its chromoly, brazing just getts things to darn hot. i cut off the sissor mount off the lower part of the strut and tigged it in the correct location. on the real plane the sissors are outboard but the robart ones dont allow that.. so the easyest thing was to put them on the other side, as seen. the pic with the pen is where the original location of the sissor mount was. i also bent the strut where the wheel mounts to. so the wheels are 90 degrees from the ground and also allows for the gear doors to fit and look correct..

hope this helps?
