• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

We're just putting the shock load tested 0-360 back into our ground-looped Starduster. We're using new 'homebuilders mounts' from S & S (I believe they're also called conical mounts) with new AN8 bolts with castle nuts and split pins - all exactly as it came off. Presumably there's a recommended torque setting for the nuts but I can't seem to find it anywhere.
Anyone any ideas ?

Thanks
