Shimmy on nosegear on Aerocet Amphibs

[Jon Delamarter]

H Jon,
Yes all of the Service Letters were installed.
Do you think that we need to shim them tighter with plastic shims????

Let's see if we can get Aerocet to weigh in on this conversation. Stand by...

Response from Aerocet:

Hi Jon,

Is there any noticeable play in the gear arm pivot pin, nose wheel caster pin, or axle?

Was the nose wheel caster adjusted per SB12, to achieve the proper pivot force of 2.25 – 2.75 at the axle center?
