Rhys,
I ordered my parts online, and with a phone call to Garhauer, was able to
put together a very nice adjustable traveler system. Someone had previously
removed the traveler track and put on a diamond shaped cast pad eye, that;
when I took off the mainsheet blocks, I found was cracked!
All I could figure was the guy didn't want to spend the money replacing the
track and associated gear, so he half-assed it instead.
Hate to be on the receiving end if that padeye had let go....

Thanks for the recommendation. I am flying an assymetrical for the
first time this year and want new blocks PLUS I want to increase the
mechanical advantage on my "Easy block" traveller set up for the
smaller wife to handle...gotta take the helm some time!
