To whom it may concern:
            The following remarks are in reply to a question about Graham 
Singleton's
mod PFA 10371 which uses the original pushrod to add to the revised longer
tailwheel spring mod. 
I lost the query message regarding the above subject and made a point to measure
the requisite parameters next time. I suppose being late in reply it's 
redundant,
but wanted to appear keen:

The simple rod length (no ends                                             14 
inches
add the rodends AN490HT8P shoulder-shoulder               14-1/4 inches
distance twixt endfitting centrelines MW4                              18 inches
        Strangely enough these distances are measured to the nearest mm, in 
situ,
give the requisite 30deg either side travel, and permit about 3/4in in rod
length change if required - that is, the rodends and fittings are at mid-range.

Cheers,
