Brief Description:  Getting her onto the Wheels

The silly season is here again and I'm a little bit in need of some pointers on how to install the bungee loops.

4 loops were supplied with the kit and it looks like a monumental task to get these into place without killing myself.

All or any suggestions would be welcome.

Merry Xmas y'all

To overcome the problem I had discovered back on Nov. 11, when fitting the Alaskan Bushwheel tail wheel for the final time, I folded up a copper shim spacer so that the Univair tail spring (1 &1/2 inch wide) that was supplied by the kit manufacturer, could be snuggly matched into the casting (1 & 3/4 inch wide) of the tail wheel.
It was only after doing this that I discovered that Spruce supplies part number 06-00810 (ABI-3243-01) which is made just for this purpose for about $50.00.

Just another example of the poor quality control of the parts supplied by Bushcaddy. I didn't waste my time complaining or demanding the correct part be supplied because past experience tells me it would be a waste of my time. The bit about Builder support on their web site is untrue and needs to be corrected.
