RE: Need tips for LT-40 Taildragger Conversion
Clipping the tailwheel to the rudder is lighter & easier to install, as opposed to the pushrod method.
The pushrod is more adjustable & easier to repair.
Take your pick -- both work very well.
I usually clip (or bond) to the rudder, but on "twitchy" models I use a pushrod to "gear down" the tailwheel steering ratio without limiting rudder motion.
