Hey Rusty your new gear looks nice. I hope it works as good as it looks. I’m very happy with my new gear and the 3 extra inches in height is a plus. Like you I’m using a longer prop than stock and the extra ground clearance helps.

I'm haven't noticed any change in camber, so I'm happy about that. The original gear had negative camber from before the first flight, so maybe they have improved the bending over the past decade. I'm also hopeful that maybe those early gear just weren't heat treated properly either, and with any luck they are now. Time will tell. I really do wish I had more prop clearance, because I'm giving up a lot of performance with that 60" prop.
