Simon,


You must compare BOTH photos.  The frame was in the same position on the
bench when both were taken.


The frame was resting on the engine mounts but the purpose of photos was to
show the relationship between the stops and the housing for the shaft that
ties the LG08 's.  A line drawn between the two stops was not parallel to
the axis of the shaft.  Believe me, the stops were NOT correct.


Anyway, my frame is a Classic one and as such does not have offset engine
mounts AFAIK.


Regards

Kingsley

Kingsley,


In those photos the mount is resting on the engine mounting points.  These
are offset toward the starboard side of the aircraft.  I suspect that the
"error" that you found is supposed to be there.
