How hard would it be to install inverted landing gear onto my RV?

What I want is to be able to double hinge my main gear and tailwheel so it can emerge from either side of the wings and fuse.

I have some initial ideas and am right now cutting the necessary holes in my wing skins for clearance. I have some gear legs from a B-52 that crashed in Maine 40 years ago and I think they will fit if I use smaller tires.

This will allow me the option of doing inverted touch and goes.

Orion, any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
