Chris,

Tim Ong's Oleos (Ong's Debongers)  are still working well.  I recently had a 
"drop-on" landing that would have sent me flying in the old days -- now I 
just look embarassed and roll on.  In addition, there is no more "skittering" 
on crosswind landings.  Once the wheels are on the runway, they stay there.

I may need to boost the nitrogen pressure a bit since they compress some with 
the plane loaded.  This is a negative since I cannot see over the nose when 
taxiing, but also a plus since the prop ground clearance is greater.

I have no cold weather experience yet.
