Rear Cable Stay - missing 1

Post by br-549 »

Where in the Milwaukee area can I get a rear cable stay. One of the two is missing. I have been living with one, but thought I should fix it before it gets broken!

Thanks in advance.
We are so blessed

I purchased some rope from Milwaukee Rigging on eBay.
They gave me quick service at a fair price
Maybe they can help you out.
Sorry I don't have any contact info, but a web search should find them.

If you mean one of the two split backstay pieces, West Marine can make another to match - but they will either need the second one or some really good measurements. The original manual lists them at "5'", but no mention of wire size.
