IMPORTANT: Installation of the 0350-607-431 Strut Retrofit Kit on aircraft equipped with Dart
saddles requires that hardware shown in Figure 7 fastening the crosstubes to the Dart saddles be
reversed in order to prevent interference with the 04775-041 Strut Assembly. This must be done
prior to the installation of the 0350-607-431 Strut Retrofit Kit (See Figure 7). To use the 0350-
607-431 Strut Retrofit Kit, the aircraft must be equipped with high gear.
3.6.1 Remove the lower (qty 2) 03910-3 X-Tube Lugs and replace with (qty 2) 03910-5 X-Tube Lugs
as shown in Figure 7.
NOTE: It is acceptable to reuse the existing hardware as well as the 03984-080 Rubber
Extrusion, however, they should be inspected for suitability for continued service. Replace if
necessary.
3.6.2 Install (qty 2) 04776-3 Skidtube Clevis on the inboard side of each skidtube saddle in
accordance with Figure 7. Note that the installation differs for installation on OEM or Dart
skidtube saddles, refer to Figure 7. Torque fasteners on Dart Skidtubes to 50-70 in.lbs
(5.6 - 7.9 N-m). Torque fasteners on OEM skidtubes per applicable aircraft
maintenance manual.
3.6.3 Install (qty 2) 04775-041 Strut Assemblies as shown in Figure 7. Adjust the rod end to
achieve the proper installation length. Check the witness holes located at the bottom end of
the 04775-041 Strut Assemblies to ensure that the thread from the rod end extends past the
witness hole. Torque fasteners to 160-190 in-Ibs (18.1 -21.5 N-m).
3.6.4 Remove the existing 04086-X Placard and replace with 04917-X Placard as per Table 3
