REFLECTOR: Main Gear Nut

[Ann DaSilva]

Why not reverse the bolts and put the nuts on the inside? I don't know munch
about this, just a stupid question on my part.

  Hello TEC
  You are correct
  I would never use a nylon lock nut on the engine side of the fire wall.AC
43.13-B forbids fiber or nylon locknuts in applications exceeding  exceeding
250f.
  We did our 5/8 bolts the same as you .That is drill and castellated nuts
with cotter pin.
  Fiber nuts or OK forward of the gear bulkhead.
  Table 7 / 2  Minimum torque values page 7-12 AC.13-1b
  If anyone needs this chart Give me your FAX number
  Regards
  Mack
