Looking to do the same while I replace the rigging. Questions.
Am looking to do something similar, but I am still on the hard.
I've got similar rig dimensions but will be replacing the rigging. I've got the tops swaged, but need to install the mechanical fittings (Hayn Hi-Mod) and cut the wire at the proper lengths.
I've replaced the mast step, and the chainplates etc., and I don't trust my measurements on the old rigging so I'd like to put the stick up and cut the wire to size and install the terminals. The forestay, in a RF, is the only thing that stays the same.
Do you forsee any problems with this approach and what would you recommend I use to cut the wires (largest is 3/8" diam) to length (grinder cut-off, dremel, or wirecutters?).
Thanks!
Mike L.
