[rebel-builders] Super rebel/Moose tailwheel stinger

Post by Ted Waltman » Sun Feb 19, 2012 8:06 pm

Hello Jason,

I might have one. Have to look in the hangar. Unfortunately, the std
Murphy bold spacing is 1 3/16" if I recall correctly. I too use an AK
Bushwheel assembly; I had to have a machinist first fill then redrill my
current stinger.

Guys,

Short story: I need a new tailwheel stinger...either factory or aftermarket.
Anyone have a used one they want to sell? I want to use an Alaska Bushwheel
tailwheel and the bolt spacing is 1.25 inch.

Or...does anyone know what alloy and if there is any heat treating applied
to the Murphy stinger?

Thanks, -Jason

Hi Ted: I'm in the middle of doing something quite similar to your setup;
question: how do you "fill" the 3/16" hole on the stinger. I understand it
should NOT be filled with any welding process, but just filled with a 3/16"
pin with a force fit and then re-drilled to 1/4" and 1/16" further away from
the other hole so as to make the distance 1-1/4" because the Alaskan
Bushwheel has 1/4" holes and are 1-1/4" apart while the original Murphy
stinger has 3/16" holes and 1-3/16" apart one from the other. Is this clear,
or just mumble jumble?.....it makes perfect sense to me. I just figured this
out a minute ago, and I hope you can endorse this procedure. Thanks a lot,
regards, Eduardo

I'm at a loss then why you'd fill them at all if MAM's uses 3/16th and AWB's
uses 1/4" bolts. Use a mill and bring the holes up to 1/4" referencing off
the edges of the existing holes that face each other. There is a 1" distance
between these hole edges for either tailwheel then if MAM's spacing is 1
3/16ths and AWB is 1 1/4" !
