      Yes I have the heavy lift kit installed since floats installed and also change out roney brackets every 100 hrs since their are so low cost

    Hey John, just bought some floats for my challenger. I talked to Don Z about them.

      Phil, I have the aluminum spacers that conform to the longerons, and the rony brackets fit flat against them. Are you talking about a washer at the head of the strut bolt?

      I have carried 10 gal of fuel in the tank, and 370 lbs of two passengers off the water..it climbs very slow like that, but flys.
