Nov 26, 2019     Disassembled gear legs for rebuild - (1.5 hours)       Category: Landing Gear
Removed gear from wing. Disassembled gear leg assembly to take lower gear leg with damaged fork to welder/machinist friend to inspect. Need to start planning gear leg with new brakes, wheel, and tire to fit within wing.

Upon discovering the corroded landing gear mounting bolts, decided it's prudent to inspect all bolts.
Removed bolts on gear retract shaft. Bolts looked fine but cleaned them up, repainted the heads, and put in new safety wire. Much better.
