Has anyone found that shortening the leg in anyway reduces the prop ground
clearance? I also find that the Langair web site now states to include a
check for $100 and they will refund or bill for any difference.

Subject: Price for nose gear leg?
Charlie,
Here is the story on the gear leg mod from Harmon Lang. This is to go from a
-2 to a -3, if you have the -1 I believe you need the new leg, I was unable
to find the price on "the list" either. You probably need to call Van's.
/"The procedure to send the nose gear for modifying.
Pack it up in a box or tube and send it to Langair Machining 33094 Church
Rd. Warren Or. 97053. A drawing for a box is on the web site. A tube from a
carpet core also works. Include $75.00 for the work and enough to ship it
back. Cash or check. We don't take credit cards. Include a return label. We
will remove it from the container, cut the 1 in off, rethread and put it
back in the same container. The rethreading is done with a carbide thread
milling tool running in a CNC mill. If you have the mill you can do this
yourself. Cutter cost and set up will only cost about $300.00 or so. Expect
the time in our shop to be about 4 days. Until we know how many there will
be, we have to set one day aside to do the batch that comes in for the week.
Please help by making the repackaging go as easily as possible. NO
CONFUSION. Harmon"/
