I would guess you aren't looking very closely as they are steerable full swivel

optimal parts. The one on my RV came from Vans.

Thanks for the correction. You're right, I didn't look very hard. I
only went to their websites store and did a search for "steerable full
swivel tailwheel" and it came up "Your search returned no results."
Since your post I went back to confirm and same results. If you type in
"steerable tailwheel" you get "Your search returned no results.". Only
by typing in "full swivel tailwheel" does it come up with a photo that
one has to assume is also steerable as the photo shows steering cables.
Nothing in the text about steerable. Not having seen a "steerable full
swivel tailwheel" on an RV I was assuming their web site was a good as
their aircraft. My error. You're right, about them not selling "cut
rate" parts but the Aviation Products, Inc unit is excellent quality
and extremely reliable for $100 less money, if they are available.
