    They are just a small off-road led. Like one that you use to make a rzr steet legal.

    You can have it mixed up to spray it, or they will mix it in an aerosol can. We figured for the butt rib a can should be fine.

    How is it your gas cap is so recessed? Is this a feature of the 7s that my 6 wouldn't have?

    I believe that’s the STI wing... probably thicker, using the same fuel tanks.

    So when we ordered the tk1 monster landing gear we assumed that it included the tail wheel assembly also. So we have the stock matco wheel and stock tail assembly. Instead of switching them out later, thinking of selling what we have new in box and going to the tundra light and t3. Is the T3 what everyone recommends? Is there something on the t3 that always breaks? Is there something better or did they update it?

    I've only heard good things about the T3. It's what I have, and what I flew at Stick and Rudder. I believe Brandon Peterson doesn't like the Tundra Lite. You might give the factory a call to discuss what they feel is the best setup.

    I did what you did. I sold my Matco, kept the spring as a spare and ordered a T3 and a TundraLite. I love my setup.

    I'm ok with the tundra light. It's the baby bush I'm not a fan of.....
