Hello!

Does anyone know of any procedures for servicing the WMI strut for the Legacy? I've found servicing instructions for the old ESCO strut, but not for the WMI. I have heard that the strut has to be in a certain position before adding oil, but not sure what that position is or if this is, in fact, true.

I just started having some shimmy when braking in the 45-35 kt range when landing. If I don't need to brake (just roll out to below 35kt) then there is no shimmy. So guessing the shimmy occurs when strut is compressed due to braking. So, I thought I'd service the strut, but cannot find any procedures to do so.

Thanks!
