You won't be sorry. I put one on my -4 a few years ago. It rides real nice. Makes me feel better on rough surfaces too.

I have one for my 8 as well. Very nice quality, and I think it give's it much better clearance than the stock unit.

Send Doug an email, and get on the list. It takes a while, so be patient.

I was all psyched to order a Bell tailwheel and emailed Doug Bell Jr. Apparently his dad has stopped taking orders until May, he needs to catch up on his existing order backlog. Plus, he said his dad's a pertectionist and these things take a bit of time to make.
I can relate to that!
