They are great!! A few of these arrivals would have been "go-arounds" without these shocks. Additionally the workmanship, ingenious adjustment, and ease of installation are very commendable. It was reported that these would NOT reduce the impact stresses on the Over Center Link inboard attach point. I'm not up to the stress analysis, but wouldn't the reduction in shock regardless of the wheel angle also carry on to a reduction in shock to the overcenter attach point??? I have installed the phenolic reinforcement for the OCL inboard attach point (SB050-0999), but found NO sign of delamination or stress. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://www.olsusa.com/Users/Mkaye/maillist.html Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
