I just received one myself. Have not installed it yet. This will be my first attempt at a retractable tail wheel. Any suggestions from anyone would be a big help

Dingo,

Who are you and where do you fly? That tailwheel gets bad reports from time to time, but I've always had excellent luck with it in 60-size warbirds.

I have mine in a TF corsair, havn't flown it yet, but it works fine on the bench, should be adequate.
