A:The strut is held on by a set screw(s). You may have to open the retract to see the set screw.

A:There’s little set Allen’s on both sides of the retract. Insert the Allen in hole and you’ll feel it go into the set screw. It’s going to be tight due to factory lock tight on the set screw

Unlike other retract units these have the mounting ****** an integral part of the main retract unit body. This may work ok if the landings are perfect on a hard surface runway. When landing on a grass runway however any bump you encounter or not a perfect touchdown produces a bending load on the main retract body which causes failure of the hard plastic ******. This is unacceptable and a product re-design is required.

These will be the second replacement units I have needed since the OEM failed after only 2 landings. One of the replacement units I purchased failed after only 3 landings. These units appear to be designed for perfect landings on hard surface runways, not grass runways which most of the flying club runways in the USA have today.
