Tailwheel installed. Waiting on a couple washers to finish it up.
The Scott 3200 tailwheel was functional, but looked like heck, so I’m overhauling it. After taking it apart , I discovered a few parts were missing while others were worn down.
So I disassembled, cleaned, inspected all the parts, and bought new parts for those missing and worn.
Now I’m reassembling it. I’ve posted some photos for progress up through this afternoon. Parts should arrive Saturday.
