Re: Tailwheel a pussycat on grass but a wild animal on pavement
You're probably geowitz. Maybe I should have contacted Matco first. The bushing is probably a harder steel. Let's see if anyone else knows. I really don't see any way it can move around any as tight a fit as it is. It's grooved so the tail spring can't squirm around. James Thomas

That bracket being cast may be an issue with the bolt tension as well...
Re: Tailwheel a pussycat on grass but a wild animal on pavement
It would be good to contact Matco about taking out the bushing. Bushings are made as the part that can wear and be replaced if need be. You could be asking for problems by not having the bushing there. If you need a bigger hole Matco may want you to ream out the hole and bush it to the larger size.
