steering arm and hold it in place with one screw. Insert the
second screw into the remaining wheel collar. Place the
steering arm onto the wire nose wheel wire and insert the
nose gear into the landing gear mount holes of the engine
mount. The steering arm should line up with the hole in the
firewall for the steering pushrod. Place the other wheel collar

might be necessary to enlarge the hole in the engine mount
slightly to fit the nose gear.

the nose gear wire where the outside wheel collar will be.
