    Subject: Coming Soon - The List of Contributors - Please Make A Contribution
    Today! Each year at the end of the List Fund Raiser, I post a message acknowledging everyone that so generously made a Contribution to support the Lists. Its my way of publicly thanking everyone that took a minute to show their appreciation for the Lists. Please take a moment and assure that your name is on that List of Contributors (LOC)! As a number of members have pointed out over the years, the List seems at least as valuable a building / entertainment tool as your typical magazine subscription! Assure that your name is on this year's LOC! Show others that you appreciate the Lists. Making a Contribution to support the Lists is fast and easy using your Credit card or Paypal on the Secure Web Site: http://www.matronics.com/contribution or by dropping a personal check in the mail to: Matt Dralle / Matronics 581 Jeannie Way Livermore CA 94550 I would like to thank everyone that has so generously made a Contribution thus far in this year's List Fund Raiser! Remember that its YOUR support that keeps these Lists going and improving! Don't forget to include a little comment about how the Lists have helped you! Best regards, Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator

What does that one cost? Travis at Kolb told me the new tail wheel with 1" wide wheel is $300+ dollars but he said it's a whole new one that needs to be put on the boom. The one in your picture looks like it might slide right on my shaft.

    If the wheel is not exactly vertical ,or leaning when stationary,it will gi ve you a fit.The tail spring must be tight in the support tube and the rest of the assy tight on the spring rod.If it can move off of dead vertical it will be easy to steer on way and almost impossible the other.The rods get sloppy in the tube and the bolt hole elongates letting the rod twist.I cure d that issue on my Mk3 by clamping the rod in the tube G.Aman -----Original Message----- From: Arizona Flyer <heracesthesun@yahoo.com> Sent: Thu, Nov 7, 2013 1:09 pm Subject: Kolb-List: Re: tail wheel turning right byoungplumbing(at)gmail.c wrote: > is this the tail wheel you are having trouble turning right? > > [img]cid:9D2DD9D74D6F4CCD928710FFF260BAEF@BYoungHP[/img] > > and did you mention the wheel turns easy till the actuating bar is bolte d on the top? > > if all above is true,,,,, there may be a missing washer under the actu ating bar,,,,, or the housing may be a bit too tall. > > this is the wheel I am using now and wish I had changed from the pizza cutter wheel much sooner.
