Hi



I recently acquired a Marc Parnes universal wheel balancer which I used to static balance my three wheels. I had them off for tire swaps and repacking the wheel bearings so I though that would be an ideal time to see if I could smooth things out when I land.



The long and short of it is that I not longer get a wheel shimmy when I am slowing down after landing. I have been landing on a runway that does have some snow on it so perhaps that has been helping as well.



In any event, things are very smooth now. For those that may be interested, here is a link to the balancer. http://www.marcparnes.com/Buyers_Guide.htm



Cheers

PS: I would like to think this is all due to my landings being incredible smooth but that would be tempting the gods just a bit too much....
