I have a front wheel shimmy that has slowly progressively been getting worse over the years. I've replaced the shimmy dampener and it helped some. The mechanic finally discovered the root cause of the issue - the hole where this mounting bolt goes through is enlarged which leads to excessive free play in the steering mechanism. I need to replace the part.
This is the side view from the right. The red circle shows where the hole is enlarged. It's the T-bar that needs to be replaced.
This is the view from the top. You can see the front wheel peeking out. The bottom of the picture corresponds to the front of the aircraft. Does anyone know what this part is called?
