Follow-Up On Adjustable Axle Spacers

I’ve been working diligently in getting the axle spacer program up and running. Thanks to all of you who have come to read about them and who have gone to Cleaveland Tools and put your name on their waiting list. I will have product to them around the 15th of January.

I installed the prototypes on my nose gear today and took pictures to put together an informative instruction sheet. We got lots of good pictures and Mike Lauritsen is going to add them to his order page in the next couple of days.

I am hoping to get he word out to the RV-6/7/8/9 crowd that I have a fix for their problem design as well. It would be very helpful if any of you readers would mention it to your friends and possibly print out the article on my blog to post in your EAA, RAA, COPA and AOPA publications. Maybe even as an article in your newsletter.

The more people hear about this fix the more safe we are going to be. I have heard some real scarry stories about people coming back to land with excessive shimmy and spinning bearings.
