Thanks Peter,
I have a set of these legs and I heard that someone has done just as you suggested, cut them in half, but I don't know how that worked out. They are 1" thick. I don't think it would be good practice to reduce the thikness not having any information on the stacking and I'm afraid without reducing the thickness the section will not be stable in torsion if the width is reduced enough to make the leg flex accepable for my plane. That is why I'm looking into the Diehl leg which has been shown to work well on KRs. That said, the Cheetah legs may work just fine, I haven't given up on them.

Cutting them in half would give a design gross weight of 1200lbs, but reduce twisting resistance. They are 261/2 long. Peter
