Tom,
The 360 I purchased has a 3 blade MT prop and the added spacer. I
tried taking the spacer out but lost too much clearance. I have never
noticed any nose wheel shimmy (I've put close to 500 hrs on the
A/C) and after landing it can be a bit difficult to see over the
nose but not impossible. Taxing after leveling the aircraft is no problem. The
spacer is 1" Al and has two pins, one on either side, which are used
for the tow bar.

Tom,
Might work BUT, this will aggravate
nosewheel shimmy and give you a nose high taxi attitude.
Even when the plane is level, you can't see what
is right in front of you.
Maybe you could start at 1/2" and try
that.

Subject: [LML] LNC2 nose gear
spacer
Folks,
I am considering adding a aluminium spacer/doughnut/ring to the
bottom of the LNC2 nosegear fork to give me some more prop clearance.
I am running a long prop and need all the clearance I can get. I have
the available space in the gear well to extend the strut at least 1
inch. I would love to hear from anyone who has taken this approach,
materials dimensions etc
Thanks
Tom
