Default Replacement tail wheel assembly
Hi all, I am replacing my original tail wheel assembly yoke with a Flyboys accessorys yoke but the holes are not drilled for the bolts that go through the tail spring. A friend of mine told me that someone posted a good procedure on the vans Air Force website for locating those holes . Does anyone have that link available?
Thanks

Blake has a tech sheet with that photo on it that should have been included. Sorry for the omission!
