So because of a previous thread which turned off topic, I thought I would share some info in a new thread and answer some of the questions that were asked.

First of all, I recently purchased my 1976 Arrow II (April 2014) and decided to upgrade a few things which I felt needed updating. So....with checkbook in hand and an A&P who allows me to owner assist, the games began.

On the list were, and still are, a few things. So I'll share as I continue to finish each phase of the entire project, which is to make this Arrow, MY Arrow!

First off the nose gear needed to be painted and a few bushings needed to be replaced. All new bushings and bolts later, I reprinted the trunion and striped the paint off of all the drag links and polished the aluminum. Makes a nice compliment to the polished spinner!

Before...
