40A RV-14A TRICYCLE LANDING GEAR & ENGINE MOUNT

Updated nose gear axle

Changelog

• 10/06/2020

  The original nose gear axle required the clamping force of the tapered wheel bushings to be set by the torque on the AN6 bolt. In order to make this adjustment easier and provide parts that are expected to last longer, the U-00024 axle has been introduced. The U-00024 axle allows the builder to tighten the MS21025-20 axle nut to set the correct force on the tapered bearings.

  Note that this is an improvement of the parts being used in the assembly and is not related to any safety issue. The original parts can continue to be used.
