I have a slight shimmy. I have the Cleveland 15-16 shimmy damper, I see air-parts has the o-ring kit, I have the diagram, but am looking for a service manual. If anybody has one I would appreciate it.

Bill,
You should also check to see if the steering rollers are contacting the yoke when the nose gear is extended. We had a shimmy as well, replaced the dampener, and still had the problem . Looking closer we realized that we had left and right play from a worn roller. If it's up on jacks its easy to see. We used a oversized roller to elimante the play and that took care of the problem. Good luck
