GEAR LEG REINFORCEMENT - on inside of gear leg (this plate
replaces the small rectangular aluminum plate that the four
axle bolts go through.

Mine is made of .125" 6061-T6 aluminum plate with the rough
dimensions of 3 1/4" wide top tapering to 2 1/4" wide
bottom ( actually it is cut to match the width and shape of
the gear leg) by 7" high. It is drilled for the 4 axle
attach bolts at the bottom (the bottom of the plate should
extend to the very bottom of the gear leg) and at the top
center for the AN4 through bolt that holds the SS heat
shield top center. Obviously the plate is at an angle that matches the gear leg.
