Keep the Skinny Birds Flying Safely
I am restoring a 1940 Collegiate and need to find a source for control cable fairleads. The fairleads are .550 in diameter and 1" long. I have checked all the traditional sources and they all have Piper cub fairleads that are .750" in diameter. Does anyone have a source for Porterfield fairleads?

I turned mine on a lathe, out of phenolic block. Others use hardwood dowel stock. Both work well. I don’t know if there's a factory drawing available for them. You could ask Brad Rankin, and attach it to your 337 for “owner manufactured parts.”
