REFLECTOR: Overheated Brakes Causes Landing Gear to Bow

[Milton Mersky]

Kirk:

Please consider the alum. peg leg boot. WE had the same problem as you and we cut off the weak end and fitted the boot. No further problems.

  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?

  Thanks

  Kirk
