Reviews

Springs fit well with adjustment to chain. Connectors were too large to fit tailwheel horn and clips ordered were too small. Had to use original clips. Did not stop shimmy so I ordered new tailwheel instead of trying to rebuild 70 y/o original.

They function as designed with easy install. A good bit pricy.

Spring material very soft. One spring has stretched after 2 flights. Tailwheel has swivel pin release, so that is how much pressure it experienced.

I had one of the small Tailwheel spring clips pull open on my Extra 300. This is the prefect replacement system with the oval clips with safety cotter pins.
