Thanks Pete.  I see the picture didn't attach, trying again here.  I was aware
the "pin for stop" didn't work very well and I converted to the Singleton tail
wheel set up.  Maybe only the Classic tail wheel fork was without the slot? 
How has this open slot been dealt with as far as using the grease fitting and
pumping grease in, only to exit the slot?Bill

Hi Bill, I am unable to open your picture but I suspect the slot you refer to is
there as a range limiter for mono tailwheel range of movement. In that 
configuration
a rollpin in the tail wheel pivot axle contacts each end of the slot
to limit rom.
Hence the slot is standard and you will not find any other type than you already
have. By the way the stop never worked very well as the roll pin just sheared
off in service.

I have the tailwheel fork which has the slot cut out on the inside of the fork
which defeats the purpose of having an enclosed capsule to contain the grease.
Might there be anyone who has a tailwheel fork without the slot they are not
going to use, maybe because of converting from a mono to a tri.  I have attached
a picture to show the slot I am talking about.

Additionally I have an unused mono aluminum rim, axle and brakes I am not going
to use if they are of interest to anyone.

Thanks,
Bill
