• 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.

I plan to disassemble and clean and reassemble the Scott 3200 tailwheel on my Hatz this weekend, but I'm finding conflicting information.... some parts need to be greased, obviously, but some sources say to not grease the slip disks (I think they call it a thrust plate), but other sources say to grease them on reassembly... which is correct?

Trying to solve a shimmy problem... I've already rebent the spring to what should be a better angle, but I figure I might as well clean everything up while it's off the plane.
