Short Description: Up-Drilling And Tapping Fork Anchor Holes
|
The last steps to complete the custom nosewheel fairing installation was to up-drill the anchor holes in the fork blades to 7/32” and tap with ¼”-28 UNF threads. Once this was done, the two fork anchor holes in the fairing pieces were up-drilled to allow tight fit of an AN525-416R6 washer head screw.
The nosewheel was reinstalled with the new custom designed nosewheel fairing and the installation is complete.

Tapping to a 1/4"-28 UNF thread.
|

The new split fairing will allow much better nosewheel and fork inspection and servicing.

The finished product... from a 3D scan of the wheel, strut and fork, to the finished custom fairing.
