Can I Push on the Strut or Not..?

[cessnadriver]

Hello. I'm fairly new to C337 ownership. I have two 1965 skymasters, one, my first, is a project, now parts bird, and the second is in flying condition. I'm an A&P mechanic so I do my own maintenance. SO to your question. My older models may have heavier gauge fairing on the struts mine are plenty stout to push on and with the many screws holding the two halves of the fairings I'd say "YES" push on the struts! FYI
