Hello, marzach

To help other bolters in the future, what is the contact information and part number?
If it is on-line, would you please post a link to the company website and/or part?

Thanks,

I just called Pullman and they no longer make the reel with the cable and the ball on the end. Apparently there was a problem with the manufacturing process and according to Bill, they discontinued the part. Anybody have other sources or ideas?

I now realize that I should have bought many of these at the time.

Thank you! Lisa

** The reel does not house the cable. The cable connects to a flat metal tape enclosed in the reel. The reel mentioned at the top of this thread is a near exact copy of the orig. reels that came in the clam shell vehicles. I was not aware that the Pullman company ever made the cables. The reels are still available.
