Just to be correct technically, itıs 4130 steel. You donıt want more than
.30% carbon for welding.
The nose gear mod assures safety for the future.

Pulsar Friends,
I just finished the rework of my nose wheel. All of the discussion at the
Pulsar reunion, how to strengthen the nose wheel design, I was on a mission
to improve mine. It wasn't hard. all you need is the 2-1/2" of the 5/8" ID
pipe (4160 steel), a 6" hex bolt (preferrably grade 5), and a nex nut that
fits the bolt, and somebody experienced and trustworthy shop to cut the nose
gear, grind it to fit the pipe, and weld the pipe to the nose gear.
Attached is a picture of my result.
I have 7" of 4160 5/8" ID pipe left over from my order from Aircraft Spruce
to do the job. If anybody would like to buy the leftover $18 pipe purchase,
I would entertain selling. I have found that cut the pipe to exactly 2-1/2"
the 6" 5/8" hex bolt works idealy, and one additional washer at the castle
nut. The threaded end of the 5/8 6" bolt needs to be cut down a bit and
needs to be drilled for the castle nut and cottle pin. I can also provide a
new set of belleville washers.
Fly safe,
Ronko
