| Subject: | Nose wheel stem clearance |
I installed my nose wheel last night and had the same issue as others
with the stem clearance. Even with the cap off, there was not enough
clearance for comfort. I thought -" if I could bend the stem slightly I
would be OK" - NOT!
"Boys and girls - don't try this at home."
The stem will break off at the threads.."so I am told" I am now looking
at the tube + shipping to get back to the same place. In searching the
archives someone had used a Desser tube on a different RV. Has anyone
found a good replacement for the supplied nose tube that will work with
the supplied rim and tire? It would be great to drop a different tube in
- that had a shorter stem rather than back to the same situation. The
alternative would be the other wheel "NW511.25" + tube + .
Any info would be appreciated.

Ours fit fine with about 1/8=94 clearance on the valve stem. Van=92s
suggested
putting a rubber grommet of some kind where the two wheel halves some
together to hold the valve stem. I don=92t know if this would make a
difference, but we put it in and don=92t have a clearance problem.
Do not archive.

Ah, the beauty of experimental aviation=85wait, those sandbags aren=92t
going to
produce as much horsepower as cylinders would. OK, this is just for
fitting
the cowling. Thanks all those who helped figure out how to get this
engine
model down to Ecuador (especially those at BPA).

| Subject: | Tank Skin Dimple Die Set |
--> RV10-List message posted by: Jeff Carpenter <jeff@westcottpress.com>
Cleaveland sells a "Tank Skin Dimple Die Set" that makes a deeper
dimple to allow room for the proseal. I'm about to dimple the tank
skins and am curious if those that have used it are happy they did
and those that didn't wish they had? Or, to ask the question another
way... is it worth the 36 bucks?
The archive discusses this briefly... but the limited discussion
leads me to believe that most builders have done without it.
