Percy:: make sure that the wheel and tire are "Round!" The shimmy often metastasizes due to an out of round imbalance, rather than a side to side imbalance.

I have embarked on what could be a nose gear oleo overhaul. Any Ideas (suggestions, comments, convenient cusses)? Opal and I are chasing a bad shimmy, and I pointed out where the nose wheel looks loose in the bottom collars. I have Service Memorandum 41 and will follow that for tolerances, etc. Thanking you in advance for your advice. Percy in NM, USA
