>>>Yes i have done it. It is quite simple
>>>undo the nut from the top of the shaft that holds the nose wheel fork
>>>remove the fork and all the washers, spacers etc, THE PIN, and in the kit
>>>you will find the small steel ring about 1.5mm thick that will slide
>>>onto the shaft of the nose wheel fork, slide the whole thing
>>>back into gear leg without anything else on there, just the small ring from
>>>the kit
>>>then put the big ring from the kit on top of the gear leg and a couple of
>>>washers on top of the ring
>>>then a half inch nut, there SHOULD be a gap under the washers. tighten up
>>>the nut until the
>>>flat plates on the top of the nose wheel and the bottom of the gear leg
>>>touch. This should have the
>>>small steel ring inside the bottom of the gear leg. Then remove the nut and
>>>washers, remove the
>>>nose wheel and the two steel rings (which you no longer need), At this point
>>>the inner sleve
>>>may be sticking up out the top of the gear leg, if so, cut/file it off till
>>>it's nice and flush.
>>>put the whole thing back together but this time put the rubber o-ring on top
>>>of the shimmy plate, so
>>>when you slide the nose wheel back into the leg it will be inside the bottom
>>>of the gear leg (where the small steel ring was)
>>>then put the washers (new bigger ones from the kit) plus 4 of the old ones
>>>on the top with your Castelated Nut (the one with the slots cut in it)
>>>on and re-set the tension as per the manual
>>>
>>>Just so you know, My gear leg already had space for the o-ring in the
>>>bottom, so maybe you can just fit the o-ring.
>>>
>>>hope this helps you, sorry i dont have any pictures, I did it as part of the
>>>build and it took about 30 seconds
