Folks,
Quote: | From the archives, I have retrieved a number of postings on replacing the AN5-20A bolt/assembly with a taper pin.
That process involves the pin going in from the bottom - requiring separating the engine mount from the airframe.

Has anyone performed this repair from the top-down? This looks like it could be done with the engine mount still attached. I don't recall the engine-mount weldment configuration - that may dictate the direction of the taper pin.
I have a barely perceptible movement in my nose gear leg and I want to get it fixed before it gets worse. Acknowledging I am at a less than smooth grass field which is a contributing factor - this may only be a temporary fix.
Thanks,
Ralph Capen
