Way too cheap to buy a $1500+ sidewinder

Shoot me an email, I can help you fix the switch and have made some changes for the longer nosed 6 cylinder models that'll let you put it on in 1 piece. A quick fix though, is to turn the nose wheel.to one side, that'll gain you some clearance.

When I get to the plane next I’ll reach out. I’ve been AOG for a couple weeks due to a missing part and the tug is in the plane. Having the tug attach as one piece is not a big deal for me. 
 

The switch will be nice to fix once I can.

Sounds good, there are a few different ways to accomplish the switch change.  I'll make you a little video to show you what to do when you're ready.

Yeah, I’ll probably need to do the switch change also. She’s working great though!

Don, I'll be at FTW and RBD tomorrow, if either are convenient for you. I'd be happy to take care of the switch for you while I'm there, it's a 10 second fix with the right tools. If not, I'll get a video soon

I’m happy to do it. I’m assuming remove the cover and change the wiring…

If you do a video, I’ll just follow it…
