I just saw where this was posted. Has anyone here seen any of these issues yet?
I know this area seems to have a lot of play and the bushings are pretty sloppy. I had some custom bushings turned to minimize the slop, but it really didn’t make that much of a difference. Perhaps the cracks are caused by an unrelated issue?
Final question. It sounds like Vans has redesigned the nose gear since many of us received our kits years ago. Does anyone know what changes were made?

Service Bulletin SB 19-09-09 Published - Inspect RV-10 gear leg mount lug | Quote: |
Van's Aircraft has published a new Service Bulletin for the RV-10, SB 19-09-09. This bulletin directs RV-10 owners to inspect the inboard attachment lugs on the RV-10 nose gear leg for potential cracks at a specific location. If no cracks are found, the gear leg is serviceable and you may continue to fly the airplane and re-inspect each year at the annual condition inspection. Replacement is not necessary in that case.
If a crack is found, owners are directed to order a kit that contains an updated RV-10 nose gear leg and associated hardware. This is described in the service bulletin document. continue
