Thanks Mark,
I have already purchased the bushings.
Have you had any trouble with the holes on the nose strut tabs wearing?

Randy,
On this location, and other wear locations on the mains as well, I added a
thin walled bronze bushing. This, along with a new bolt, cures the problem
and is easily replaceable if the need arises again.

[You can minimize the wear on the nose strut tabs by safety-wiring the bolt so it doesn't spin. Someone else posted a photo of this very fix and should be easy enough to find. If you only allow the oilite bushing to rotate around the bolt the wear on the tab holes should be minimized. Movement = wear... stop the movement, etc... <Marv> ]
