If so, I ran into a similar situation last month. After a lot of head scratching and measuring, it turned out that the nosewheel fork was sprung out and needed to be cinched down with the nut to bring the forks together, and eliminate the slop in the bearings. Actually, I ended up with an AN4-50 bolt versus the -51 called for. Incidentally, I didn't like the looks of an elastic stop-nut on a wheel, so replaced the AN365-4 with the castle nut equivalent. Believe it or not, the cotter pin will 'just' fit and can be bent over per standard procedure > Art Bertolina wrote: > > Over the weekend was checking wheel and tiers ect.
