I had a shimmy problem and found the nose tire slightly out of balance AND too much air in it. Balanced the tire and put the correct amount of air and it is gone.

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
