Time for the winter stand-down and overhaul. What are we doing about new tail wheel springs? Not the steering springs, the Mounting Spring

Wausau Spring can get you the tail spring custom made. I bought my springs from him and he was great.  wausau.spring@frontier.com     (715) 845-6335 cost about $75

I made a double spring, with the top section only partially down to the wheel, so it is stiffer on landing. I used a clamp to hold the double spring together.

OK I'll give him a call. Hopefully he still has the dimensions.

Thanks much
