gear know the measurement between the fuselage (just below n.g.bracket) and the
ground, with what size tire. thanks

rams just like theirs. Now to find someone who can make me two custom
hydraulic rams.

OK, So I may not supply quite enough info for a complete evaluation but, I am
going to try and get your alls advise.
Yesterday when I went to rotate to take off, just at or before the nose gear
lifted, I felt a pretty significant shimmy in the nose gear. The nose came up
and the airplane lifted
as will any airplane.

You know that sometimes tire pressure will affect nose wheel shimmy. I
hadn't seen that listed anywhere in reference to the shimmy issue.

That is a good point. When was the last time I checked tire pressure?

I can

For what it is worth - I experienced some serious shimmy just before
rotation on a C 206 that I fly regularly - I complained to the A&P, but
he could not find anything wrong.

Yeah, right, - Trade the shimmy for a ground loop.

You need to get your dampner replaced,or atleast checked you can't look at
them and tell if they are bad.And Cessna 152's dampners go out often...

Mr friend Garry Morgan has a KR2ss and now a Joey 2(a much larger KR2ss) he
refuses to use the spring as Mark mentioned, he removes the spring and
tightens the front assembly up tight but so he can turn the front wheel
108dec and push his plane into the hanger.
He has been doing this for yea
Should have been 180dec, (not 108 sorry)

Great looking plane!.
I just wanted to say... sorry about the luck... this in the end could turn

months of looking
This has been beat to death and the correct gear to use is not the same for
everyone, but keep in mind that plenty of nose wheels have been folded,
especially on grass strips.

Does that mean it takes a better pilot to land a nose gear on grass than a
taildragger pilot and a better pilot to land a taildragger on asphalt or
concrete than a nose wheel pilot. Hwe may be on to something
here...

OK, I am confused, some say check to make sure I have 40 PSI in the nose
wheel and you seem to be saying to decrease the tire pressure to reduce
shimmy.
Which is it?
