some trial fitting to make things come out right. In the future, whenever you want to remove the wheel, USE the LG6 piece, just reversing the above procedure.
.....The AN310-4 castle nuts must be safetied, so wher everything fits properly, drill a hole in each end of QBSMI and run a cotter pin through to prevent the nut_ from backing off. .....The routing of the brake cable is as shown on thE sketch. Note that the cable passes through the cable guide hole on its way upwards to the outboard pulley. The brake shoe may need to be "clocked" to achieve that path. In order to assemble the ANI00-3 thimble and sleeve at the brake arm end, it will be necessary to drop the wheel/tire/brake assembly out of the whe_ pant. .....Finally, only after the brake cable is run entirely from the brake shoe to the brake pedal in the cockpit and after the brake drum has been clocked if necessary to allow the brake cable to pass through the cable guide, then locate the anti-torque AN3-15A bolt, as shown. You .must remove foam and place a 1" square plywood insert in the inboard wheel pant LG2 for the bolt to travel through; foam will not suffice. 2 BID over the plywood insert is used, in addition to mounting it with micro. The QBSM3 spacer is used to fit through the slot in the brake shoe and to tighten the AN3-15A bolt down on. Be careful not to let the bolt head, or anything else, interfere with the tire rotation; a puncture would ruin your whole day. The anti-torque assembly is important; it is that which keeps the brake shoe from turning. When you think that you have all of the pieces together properly, spin the tire and actuate the brake several times. Check for excessive wobble, interferences with the wheel pant, friction, and proper brake action. Then congratulate yourself, Icause you have the wheel pants mounted and the brakes workin'. | ||||
