My New Snap Pins?

I got my new snap pins for my landing gear...The instructions did not depict where to place the pins on the landing gear...and whether the pull pins should be on the inside or the outside..Common sense tells me to mount the pull pins on the outside for easier access. What are you're opinions?
Thanks in advance.

On the same hole you were using for the single pins, and on the outside...

My factory pins are in the bottom hole of the outer tube and pull to the outside.

We have hydralic landing gear now but when we had the snap pins I changed them around so they were in the front. Made them real easy to use that way.

Mine are installed for front access and I get lots of comments about the arrangement. Some have told me that I will get dirt in the units. so far its been great.

Larry - sorry about the pins, I did find them and have them sitting on my work bench now. We have had some issues since the storm and I just forgot about it.

But if anyone else needs them I still have a used set available
