>>>>So how are you folks dealing with this?

John,

The placement of the cutout for the hydraulic lines isn't super critical and
can be moved aft slightly to (mostly) clear the load transfer pads.  The 3
BID covering the opening also covers part of the load transfer pads.  My
hydraulic fittings are pretty much lined up above the bearing for the
inboard gear doors, and they still clear the outback tires with no problem.
I did have to trim off about 1/2" from the load transfer pads, and I have
some note that I wrote to myself saying that the factory said that was OK.

This is one of those "if I knew then..." topics.  If I had to do this over
again, I would make sure I made that cutout wide enough to run at least one
more hydraulic fitting through, for the brake line.  I don't know if the SFB
instructions cover routing the brake lines better than the standard build
instructions do, but my brake line routing instructions end at the sub-floor
installation and pick up again at the brakes.  You may want to consider
running your brake line along the upper surface on the inside of the stub
wing, and start planning for it now.
