  4. Yes Hank I have all the brackets made as with the extended baggage area you have to mount the chute half way back. Not really a drama though. They modified the straps and added 2 more that go around the undercarriage now so I have to get those straps soon and fit them as I will be ordering the chute fairly soonMark

    dont forget the wodden frame ;)

  6. Really interesting new panel they have, makes it allot easier and nicer.

     

    The extended luggage compartment I wish I had, can you use the rescue chute in that configuration?

     

    Is the front wheel of different kind than the rear?

  10. I moved the reservoirs for the brake fluid, this works out a bit better, i also filled the system and tested the brakes,, works like a charm, very easy to bleed the system with the bleeding kit.

  12. How much did the wheel kit cost Dennis?...including that braking valve...I can see it in the box of parts

    I emailed you my invoice, I ordered parking brake valve extra. Black Colour extra, wheel caps extra, bleeding kit and oil.

    The alir brake regulator was included in the base kit.

     

    It's possible to get a hand brake on the yoke with integrated parking brake if you want too save weight and cash, I still wanted the differential breaking though.

     

    If you dare to go 4.00x6 tires it's possible too save 2 kilos more but they are more rounder, slimmer. I do think the outback possibilities get limited in that case.

     

     

  13. They look bloody good Skee. On the original Tyre,rims in the kit I notice the bearing wasn't a sealed unit and between the dust washer and wheel there was a slight gap where dust and dirt can get in over time, did you or others find this as well?

    Icp supplied in the kit fabric o ring and a steal washer to seal it, that's all.

  14. I have the PAC02 (15x6.00-6") Tires with RF-004 4.00x6 wheels, that is the same tires icp send out, not sure about the wheel icp send out(easy to meassure).

    If i had chosen the RF-009 6.00x6 wheel i could have gone super tundra 26" wheels but i want the Datum rectractable skiis in the future so i got the 4.00-6" wheels, no use for Aussies 003_cheezy_grin.gif.c5a94fc2937f61b556d8146a1bc97ef8.gif

    I recon to save around 4~5Kilos, but the intresting part is the "ALIR", makes it allot harder to wack one wing into the ground like Kyle´s aircraft accident due to uneven braking.

  15. Had a look at the Beringer and they do look pretty good.

    Saw a guy in a Zenith 601 come and land and the brake disc had come loose, wasnt so fond of the standard wheels after that.

    Mailman was here with them today but i was at work, will pick them up tomorrow and mount this weekend =) its almost like pure porn ;) and now im ready to mount skiis =)
