Hi Geoff,
Interesting. I understand how you have done it, I believe, but if you
have a photo on file, I would appreciate very much to see it.
How thick, approximately, did you make the "bottom" of the recess in
order to get sufficient stiffness against bending the fittings?
Regards,
Svein

Hi Svein,
I have a towbar and fittings attached to the nose gear.
I had two pieces of approx 1.5 inch aluminium rod recessed on one
side with a hole through the center. These are attached to the nose
wheel axle with the existing bolt, and the fairing cut to allow them to
protrude slightly. The tow bar is made of steel tube with a piece of
tube at each side of the attachment end sized to match the recess size
in the aluminium collars. The towbar is in two parts which slide
together to enable the attachment, then pinned to retain.
Hard to describe but if you want a photo, please let me know.

Does anyone have a proven solution for a towbar and its attachment
to the nose gear?
I have the factory's wheel fairing installed.
