Prewar rear liftstrut misalignment

Re: Prewar rear liftstrut misalignment

I have done my best at measuring the angles of each of the aft struts in the posted picture as limited by picture quality (see my attachment). There is a significant variance. Can you tell me which were prewar and which were post-war?

I don't have mine available to measure absolute angles, however the originals that fit the plane are about 5 degrees greater angle than those sent by Wag Aero.

Some of the measurement problems encountered by using the picture is the paralax induced by the lens. I will try to measure them directly and also answer your question. Dave

Sorry,
I forgot to post the picture. I agree about the paralax and other distortions so my measurements should be taken with a grain of salt. Anyway, here's the picture.

The skinny ones (white) are the prewar.
