Pitch trim damper

[DJA727@aol.com]

I am installing the pitch system in my monowheel glider and notice that the 
friction is very high. I have not even gotten to the nylon lock part of the 
nut and the friction seems too much. Is that thing lubricated? I am planning 
to press on, since I know it is installed correctly and assume there must be 
some friction there.

The plans call for cutting the bolt to 1.1 inches, but it measured that 
dimension right out of the box -- no cutting needed.

Any tips on this out there?
