I built mine (from the kit) for my son in the tail dragger conversion, Sullivan tail wheel. But I used this main gear so I could paint it, and it helped with my son's semi-rough landings. I say "helped", because he can just about grease the landings every time, KOW! He even had a beautiful dead stick (dad leaned out the motor too much[X(]) landing a few weeks ago. Just a great plane for him. http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXNM65&P=0

Just saw your plane in the crash and rebuild. That's an easy fix, and if you need help with the tail dragger conversion, just ask, these guys have really helped me a lot.
