Because of this mounting method, Rex has not been able to get his pants off
for years.

I just glue mine together...   If you break the wheel pant, just grind the
remainder off and glue another set
on...  Pretty simple.  I usually use epoxy, but the last set, I used Elmer's
Ultimate Glue (Probond).  I use the 
lightweight aluminum axles from Central, drill the leg and pant... assemble
the parts with glue between the 
pant and gear leg.  After I adjust the attitude of the pant, I simply
tighten the axle bolt and let it dry.  You 
cant get any lighter than that!  I've been doing this for years, and haven't
had any problems.

I'm looking for a light, reliable method to mount wheels and wheel pants on
carbon fiber landing gear legs. Any suggestions?
