I have received a couple of notes concerning my last post and the things pointed out make sense. So, my last comments, "As for what might be bent, my nickel would be on the control rod that goes to the nose wheel. Just a guess; but its long enough that it could flex and then bend. Its also probably the cheapest thing to fix:" Should most likely be ignored.
The folks who pointed out my mistake were gracious enough to say that it "could" bend but pointed out that it would be more difficult than I thought. That is one of the great things about this bunch of people; they are helpful and will not attempt to educate IF we'll listen. Tommy
