Cutting the Robart strut down

-I disassembled and cut 3/4" off the end of the 1/2" Robart strut. I also cut about the same amount off the spring thats inside.

-The total length from the retract flange to the center of axle should be 6 1/4". If you decide to use a different retract, the measurement would be the same, just make sure its an 85 degree down retract. Tam says he has better retracts that he will modify for the A10, not sure what he has but you can check with him.
