Everyone,

I have found a crack on my front nose wheel fairing bracket. I suspect that
the crack has developed because the bracket has not been centrally aligned
on the wheel bolt and thus the lower section of the bracket was not
supported as well (please see attached photo). This may be something that
you want to check for when next pumping up the nose wheel.

Regards

Larger diameter washer would have probably helped spread the load.... did you balance your wheel pants?

When you speak of balancing the wheel faring C what do you consider the balance point. 

The brackets are tied into the faring in eight places. The Bracket is anchored to the wheel fork in four places. Does one use the mean distance between the two achor points that go into the wheel fork or would one use the mean distance between the bracket connections into the fiberglass faring???

Please explain the logic.
Thanks C
