Hi Bill,
Gary is right. It is a special US Standard Non-swivel tailwheel fork. Really,
it is a non-swivel. I just have a lot of sag in my chains which allows it to
turn 90 degrees to either side. It works out very well for me and allows for
turning in tight areas even without brakes. Oh, no shimmies either. Come to
the west coast Piet gathering next year and I will demonstrate it for you.
Cheers,

I would really suggest getting the ELT that uses coppertop D cell batteries. They
can save you a significant amount of money over the years.

Just went through conditional. The ELT installed in my Piet has the D
batteries. Yes, big money saver, I learned.

Could be I'm missing something here, but if your oil temps are running over 400F,
you probably have a problem; could that actually be 220?
