Tailwheel cover - how to reinstall

Post by vindio »

We lost a tailwheel cover cap, and have purchased a replacement, but wondering about the preferred procedure for reinstalling.

It's a pressure fit ... should I carefully pound it in with a rubber mallet? Try and heat it up, before slipping it on?

Thanks!
