Hi all,

Before I go banging on something and messing it up (my usual M.O.!), I was 
wondering
if there's a trick to getting the tail wheel fork to go onto the spring
rod. 

The threads on the spring rod slide on up to where they meet the beginning of 
the
second bush but refuses to go further. I've cleaned the rod with steel wool
and wiped it down real good. I've tried greasing everything up, wiggling it,
etc. but to no avail. What's a good way to clean out the inside of those bushes?

I'm ready to get out the balpene and go to work on it but don't want to foul the
threads. I'm hoping they didn't weld that sucker in there at the wrong angle,
but it doesn't look like that's the case.

Anybody had this problem?

Thanks,
