[Rhodes22-list] Forestay Replacement

[Michael Meltzer]

Rigging house(this type of work is a PITA for stan), get the pin to pin from the old system before you cut it, 1/8 wire, tell them 
you will be using a surelock so they leave the room to attach it, When stan puts these together in shop he theards everything up and 
presses the connection on inhouse. the slot stuff you are hearing about is either "rework" or a PO replacing the wire.

>> Dear All,
>>
>> Can anyone tell me how to replace the forestay on my '87 Rhodes?  While removing the jib for repairs I found a few broken strands 
>> in the cable at the top.  I have a factory original furler with the forestay inside the tube w/ plastic plugs on each end.
>>
>> How do I remove the plastic ends?
>>
>> It looks to me like the cable needs to be swaged after it is installed inside the tube?
>>
>> Thanks,  Stephen Staum
