>>Yes i have done it. It is quite simple
>>undo the nut from the top of the shaft that holds the nose wheel fork
>>remove the fork and all the washers, spacers etc, THE PIN, and in the kit
>>you will find the small steel ring about 1.5mm thick that will slide
>>onto the shaft of the nose wheel fork, slide the whole thing
>>back into gear leg without anything else on there, just the small ring from
>>the kit
>>then put the big ring from the kit on top of the gear leg and a couple of
>>washers on top of the ring
>>then a half inch nut, there SHOULD be a gap under the washers. tighten up
>>the nut until the
>>flat plates on the top of the nose wheel and the bottom of the gear leg
>>touch. This should have the
>>small steel ring inside the bottom of the gear leg. Then remove the nut and
>>washers, remove the
>>nose wheel and the two steel rings (which you no longer need), At this point
>>the inner sleve
>>may be sticking up out the top of the gear leg, if so, cut/file it off till
>>it's nice and flush.
>>put the whole thing back together but this time put the rubber o-ring on top
>>of the shimmy plate, so
>>when you slide the nose wheel back into the leg it will be inside the bottom
>>of the gear leg (where the small steel ring was)
>>then put the washers (new bigger ones from the kit) plus 4 of the old ones
>>on the top with your Castelated Nut (the one with the slots cut in it)
>>on and re-set the tension as per the manual
>>
>>Just so you know, My gear leg already had space for the o-ring in the
>>bottom, so maybe you can just fit the o-ring.
>>
>>hope this helps you, sorry i dont have any pictures, I did it as part of the
>>build and it took about 30 seconds
