Place the tail wheel bracket onto the bottom of the
fuselage. To align the assembly, the tail wheel tiller arm should
fit down into the slot you cut in the rudder, the pivot point of
the tiller arm should be even with the rudder hinge line and
the bracket should be centered in the middle of the fuselage.

You will need to cut a small notch in the leading edge of
the rudder for the tiller arm boss.

Vaseline to only the pivot point of the tiller arm.
