Default Hotspot Question. Help Please.

Could someone that has a Hotspot get a measurement for me please? Could you measure "center to center" between the two main retract mounts? Thanks in advance for the help.....Don

Hi Don, I can do that for you. Do you want it measured from outer edge to outer edge. Or from center of strut to center of strut?

p47dman,
That would be great. Could you measure from the very most outside edge of retract to the other very outside edge of retract please? That would be say, from the farthest retract mounting bolt to the farthest retract mounting bolt on the other wing, not the actual struts but the actual retract mounts. And, if you don't mind could you measure your strut length, from where the strut starts to go into the retract to the end of the actual strut?
Thank you very much,
Don

Dave. Not sure what the "trunion" is. Is the "trunion" the point where the strut starts to enter the retract hole?
Thanks,
Don

The trunion is the part that the strut plugs into. It is the part that actually rotates between the side frames. Dave.
