Wayne, on the elevator control cables (moose) murphy used a machined grooved steel insert inside the thimble for the elevator. Insert rotates in the thimble .I would use this if it wasn't hid. this is a perfect setup for rust corrosion and seizure and rotation on the bolt .I know its there but if someone acquires the aircraft they don't. What did you change this to .
thanks
