If you have the fixture from Scott you should be good.  He built about 10 gears for me around 2004 and they worked great!  Glad you are making the nose gears!  The main gears are perhaps a bit easier to find although I don't know who to source for them.  Any idea?

Bruce,

 

 These are being fabricated from the updated fixtures designed by Scott after multiple failures of the original nose gear. If there are updates that need to be made to the newer style legs that reduce shimmy, please advise.

Make sure you have the correct angle with respect to the bottom front of the gear being further forward  at the bottom.  Otherwise it will shimmy

Hello Everyone!

 

 I have just completed all the machine work and bending of 5  new Tri-Q Nose gear assemblies. We will be doing the final welding this weekend and I hope to have them ready by Monday minus heat treatment. Two of these are already spoken for, so I will have 3 available. If interested please email me privately to discuss your specific needs and prices.
