Got it all disassembled and found only a few things I needed to replace. The wheel had the old style metal seals with felt in them so I ordered new rubber seals from Alaska Airframes. I also ordered bolts, nuts and washers to join to wheel halves as they were missing but cheap. Next I disassembled the tailwheel assembly where I found the same old metal seal which I'll be replacing again with rubber. I then found that one of the brass thrust washers was not in place properly when it was last assembled so the pin on the pawl had left a mark in it. The thrust washers were cheap so I ordered 2 to replace both. The only other thing I found was that for some reason the lower dust cap was completely missing for some reason so I ordered that as well. It ended costing under 100 dollars so not too bad so far. while I was ordering I decided to throw a T3 tailwheel suspension in my cart to go with it when it's done. I do my own powder coating and I've decided to powder coat the wheel flat black I also ended up purchasing the gray that was used on my fuselage and I'm contemplating powder coating the tailwheel assembly that color or the flat black as well just not sure yet. I also discovered the Head is a Scott 3200 and the fork is a ABI 3224. If everything works out I should be into the tailwheel assembly with the T3 for 1,600 to 1,700.
