Pre-empting Bud will probably know the answer... Does anyone know if repositioning the brake caliper 180 degree to the upper position on a mono interfere with the rudder cables when the main gear is in retracted position? Thanks...

Only 90 (in line with the swingarm) is all you'll get with major tunnel surgery.



And yip.



Cheers,

Yep is right.  Cable/module interference will happen.



Pain in the butt.  Some of the aircraft had a partially hanging brake caliper.  (Don't know if it was miss-drilled or what. Only way to clean it up was a small fairing attached to the arm and fuselage to clean it up.

I never liked the fairing from a maintenance and time to fabricate standpoint.  Kim Prout did one of the first ones.
