t3 tailwheel spring with matco tailwheel

[bstell]

Greetings,
Im looking at a t3 tailwheel but i noticed that people mention you need to mill the tailwheel or get an adapter to run a Matco (i just bought and installed a matco dual arm wide). Does anyone have this adapter? is it just as shim to fill that narrower channel?
Thanks!

I have one, I’ll try to take a picture this weekend. Mine is on an aluminum tailwheel spring but I’ll be upgrading to a T3 (or other) before my first flight.

Yes, it's just a shim to fill in the narrower channel.

Awesome thanks for the info. Now I just need to see how quick I can get one. I really want the acme aero one but it seems like they're 6 weeks out.

My T3 came with the shim.
