Thanks, I think it will be close, but do-able.

I noticed on Tim's at this stage, he put diving belts on the engine mount for counterweights -- which I didn't have, but I tie-strapped a 5 gallon jug on the engine mount and filled it with water until the weight was right.

I seem to be digressing instead of starting new threads ... here's another one: I've read about the tube stem being the wrong one for the nose gear, and sure enough, it rubs. Can I just bend the stem slightly to get clearance?

Whoo Hoo! This just gets better every day!

Later, - Lew

Thats what I did. I had my tire rim assembled before the info on swapping out the assembly came along.

Is that just to the top of your canopy? I would think the top of the VS would be much higher.

Yup. 79 to the top of the canopy. vertical stabilzer's off for now.
I have the tail feathers off for their protection and for room in the
shop. Too tempting to lay stuff on the horizontal stabilizer.

Lew:

Bending the stem may work - but be careful - the stem can easily break
at the bottom thread (so I have heard....) it makes a sickening hissing
sound. The new tube had a little more clearance - but not much..
