Got a Chore warrior for an A-1 Husky with a BBW tailwheel setup. I got one early on. Only issue was fitment with the larger diameter BBW. Easy fix. Slide out the adjustable "foot". Had a welding shop cut and reweld the flat pc the slides in front of the tire. Hard to describe. But simple fix once you see it. Not necessary with a stock tailwheel. Love the device. Cheap(er). Keep it plugged in.
