After reading some of the post on inspection and maintenance of front landing gear assembly, I deceided that I should familiarize myself with this subject. The door side (D/S) gear assembly and post is accessable for inspection and maintenance, but not so for the off door side (O/D/S). The O/D/S is not accessability because of the the sheet metal liner in the front compartment and the sheet metal liner around the LP gas cylinders. IF am so unfortunate to shear a pin on the gear drive to the O/D/S post gear, there is no way to have access to replace this pin/bolt. I can visually see the pin/bolt but the hole in the sheet metal panel around the square tubing drive bar is such that there is no room get at this pin/bolt for replacement.
My question for you guys that have already solved this problem is, what do I do next? Any and all ideas plus picture will be helpful in processing a solution. Thanks in advance.
