Wheels, Brakes

We decided to start working on the main gear, but after looking at the parts in our kit, there appeared to be a problem with the axles.  It looked like the axles needed to be just a little bit longer so that we could bolt them on (using axle spacers from Just) without interfering with the brakes.  Because of this confusion, we contacted the factory, and learned that we do not need to use the spacers supplied by the factory.  Instead, we can get the existing axles to work by removing the brakes, and then removing small (about 1/2 inch) spacers that are behind the brake discs.  By doing this, we have verified that the axles provided will work just fine.    Hours: 1.5
