Hi All,
I've been wondering the same thing. You can't hardly go by the diminsions 
published because it seems to me that with the small variations in doing the 
tailwheel mod and positions of the main gear components, you would need to 
custom fit the outriggers with the plane on a level surface. I'm guessing it 
should have some rock laterally and not a four point contact. Mine is also a 
classic with the mod.
Curiously awaiting.
