REFLECTOR: Overheated Brakes Causes Landing Gear to Bow

[Jeff Howell]

call velocity and they make a alum. boot that fits over the gear leg reinforcing the leg as well as making it more rigid. It also dissipates heat better through the alum. Jeff N223AZ

Hi all,Recently, I overheated my brakes and have noticed that my gear legs have warped inward towards the rotors (in addition to small bubbling). There is currently a very small gap between the rotor and the leg on each side. I remember that someone else had this issue and Reflectorites discussed the procedures to fix this issue. Can anyone point me to that discussion as I can't seem to find it manually in the archives?ThanksKirkN360TVSE RG TO-360-E1A6D
