    Default Land gear bolts

    While mounting the landing gear for the final time I could not find a torque value for the main bolts/nuts that go through the pillow blocks, landing gear and mounts. I know there is a value for all AN bolts/nuts but this seems like an area that a torque would be listed, there is a torque value for all other landing/axle/wheel bolts/nuts in the build instructions. Suggestions?

    Be sure to use the higher torque range in the "Tension" column.
