Here is my actuator cover. It is held in place with 6 screws. I am real happy with the way this turned out.

This is a great way to level things. I got 4 of these at harbor freight tools and welded larger bases to them. They come in really handy.

Well, I decided to creep up on this because it's hard to tell where the template will lay because you're supposed to line the template up with the MKNG6 pivot.--but the pivot is down low, and the template would have to curve. So I bolted the pivot in place and brought it down, traced, cut brought it down, traced, cut. Perfect. I am not going with the gear doors and I'm glad I talked myself out of it. One less thing to worry about.
