Hey all,

I just bought a new pawnee tailwheel spring. My current spring is not cutting it. Does anyone have any photos of their PA22/20 with a pawnee spring installed?

Spefically I'm looking for the rear bracket. My current spring is 1.5" wide, the new one is 1.75". The bracket on right now it 1.5" wide. Where can I get one of these brackets from to fit?


Thanks as usual.

Dan

Dan,

Here is a photo of my Pacer Spring (Pawnee 150 spring set from Univair). I used 1 1/2" X .100 4130 strap to make the clamp and attaching plate. It has been on the plane for several years with great results. Even better with a "Fat Tailwheel". Mine is a Garr Aero conversion but the ABW ones are more available.

Call with questions,

Thanks John!

Just what i was looking for. Mine seems to be missing the clamp/holder on the bottom of the spring though, appears to hold all 4 leafs together.
