At the tailwheel. Round holes where the spring bolts to the fuselage. The springs flex at the tailwheel not at the fuselage. Also use a grade 8 washer under the bolt between the spring and tailwheel.

Perfect - even I can understand pictures! Usually.
Now, about the grade 8 washer part - I'm not sure where you're wanting that hard washer.
Also - the tailwheel is drilled 7/16", and the spring set is punched 3/8". Should I bush the tailwheel to 3/8, or open up the holes in the spring leaves, or just put in a 3/8 bolt as-is or ??
Scott & AK Bushwheel sell the Bushing that goes in the tailwheel head, it is aluminum and they usually are a little long and need some trimming. ABout $8
I see a lot of nylon lock nuts. Just check them now and then. The Super D has a forty dollar MS bolt on the tailwheel, yet just a stop nut. I suspect a castellated nut is more trouble than it is worth at tightening time.
