Looks like we r here still without an answer...
What are you talking about?

The answer is to fit in the wheel well that's it, there's nothing else, the fuselage comes first and the space made available for gear is what is so Goodrich or Messier-Bugatti-Dowty then make it fit (within reason) check out the A330/340 and the shortening link system, once again to make the gear fit in the space available. The 767 like many older Boeing has a fixed tilt, newer Landing gear have designs that modify the tilt to fit in the wheel well.
