Tail wheel spring

[Dave]

Hi Gang

Have come once again to the well of knowledge.

It is time to purchase a tail wheel assembly and spring so I can sit in the cockpit and have my friends push me around the hanger. Was curious what tail spring fits on the Classic.

I have a spring from ASSC that is susposed to fit a T-Craft (#2 in their catalog) but it is too short to fit my fuselage. Suspose I could grind out my attachment fittings and reweld a little farther back but that seems like a lot of work.

Any thoughts? As always, appreciate for any input.

Hi Dave,
We used an Aeronca Champ tailspring and a 6 inch tail wheel assembly, PN 6131, from Aircraft Spruce. It works very nice.

I used an Aeronca spring and a Lang Tailwheel from A/C Spruce on my LB-1

Hi guys

Thanks for the info. I looked at an Aeronca tail wheel assembly when I was at rthe airport this morning and it looked to be about the right size. Will return what I have and get the Aeronca spring.

Good advice as always.
