How high must the fuselage be elevated to put the gear on?

Just went through this two weeks ago. I didn't measure it at the time but in measuring it now C the  center section between the two main gear needs to be about 30 to 32" above the ground.

Vern,
How did you support the fuselage while you were installing the 2 main gear. Right now, I am supporting the center section at the wing mounting bolt holes with a 2x4 both in front and aft of the mount point. It looks like the aft board will be in the way.

Hi Gary C
 
I have some large dense foam blocks and placed them directly under the center section carry through spar. This allowed the weigh to be distributed over the the full width of the center section spar and structure.
