Hi Gavin This has been discussed before on the list so a search of the archive should yield results (see below). I'd love to see the details of what you are doing so please post them on a web site somewhere (maybe Mark Langford could put the details somewhere on his site or I could put it on mine).
On October 23, 2002 Mark Jones said "The centerline of the main gear axles, on the Diehl trigear, is 4 inches aft of the main spar." For a tailwheel configuration, one drawing I have shows the axle 7 inches forward of the front face of the main spar and 13.5 inches below the bottom face (tailwheel configuration).

How far should the wheel axle centre be behind the rear of the front spar ??? <snip>
