Here are a few pics of ERA 774. Enjoy.
Replaced the single side support and found this pair of gas struts (stainless steel) look and work great.
Here's the firewall cover.. Looks prominent in the picture, but really quite unobtrusive. Held in place by 3 screws on top.
Here's the front with struts also. Stainless steel, I think these were 19 lbs each. Work really great.
ERA probably won't approve of this, but everything I build breaks down and I need a tow point.
Here's another picture of that tow point. 0.25 in. aluminum powder coated.
