Thought I'd update on the continued frustrations of the wheel shimmy.
The parts arrived from Dirk very efficiently and we fitted the pivot bearings on the side where they had been over shimmed and damaged in the past. I made up the special tool from the "Sept 43 Service Information Bulletin", to enable me to put tension on the Pivot Pin to correctly set the bearing tension. While this was going on I had a pair of 3 degree and 6 degree wedges made at a local engineering shop
