  • turnbuckles

    Hey all;
    We are rplacing all of the control cables in our project. I was looking for opinions on replacing the turnbuckles. Should I just get new ones (pricey) or would the old ones continue to hold up? Thanks in advance.

    They should be usable if all of the threads and the plating on the steel parts are in good shape.

        They should last for just about ever if they are not abused. Tim

          This is true , that's why we have so many left over.... these are the same ones they used to actuate the spoilers on the Gliders & L-2M. With a 1/4 in holke in one end.
