Brief Description:  Torqueing the an bolts properly for gear

After an incredibly long time getting the main gear cut so that the brake calipers would fit properly, all an hardware was torqued to 90 in-lbs as per the Grove instructions. At first I set them to 80 but the instructions said 90 so they were torqed slightly higher. The main gear was then tightened until I could barely turn the wheel and then loosened until it would turn with slight drag. The cotter pins will be drilled and inserted later. Currently fitting the brake lines to be positioned under the aircraft rather than through the gear opening. They will then be brought to the front of the aircraft under the longitudinal stiffener and penetrate the fuselage just aft of the firewall and then to the cylinders themselves.
