Hi-
Does anybody have ideas for getting an adjuster cable or rod for my ‘53?
This is the rod or cable that connects the two slider tracks.
My ‘53 came to me without this.
Anybody using a home made version?
Tnx-
Ron A

Here's the dimensions for making one if you need to go that route. Measured from my original adjuster rod.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

Shouldn't be difficult to find one, original is a stiff wire but you could also fab one. Place a wanted ad here.
