And, as best as I can see by the photo, that shaft is not corroded!!! That's exactly it...and it looks to already be painted matterhorn white! grin


He didn't say that was the one he was going to part with.

Ha ha, Ron. I was referring to Greg Hopp's movie from his text....about joining the Cessna 150-152 International Club! I still laugh at it.

Lionel stated the itty-bitty hole @ the grease zerk fitting on the nose fork appeared to be extremely small and was curious as to how much grease was actually getting on the entire bearing surfaces/innards.

Are you planning on enlarging the small hole to a larger diameter, in order to improve the grease flow on the nose fork bearing, or is it even possible?

If you're talking about that great big roller bearing on the steering collar, yes, it does only have one hole on the front through which you lube the bearing. I didn't think about it, but now that you mention it, it's definitely a good thought. I'll have a look at Lionel's thread, and take a look at the collar and see what I can come up with. That's an awefully large bearing ($$$$$) with minimal means to get the grease in there. Good point. I'll let you know what I come up with.

Sorry, Ron. I didn't realize it was such an inside joke. I thought everyone had seen it. I laughed pretty hard myself. grin
