Mast and deck hardware already there..What size wire should I use...is 9/32 to small? ( have a line on a hyfield in that size is why I ask )
I want it stout enough to easly withstand 60 knots with my 100 squar foot storm jib hoisted..also will need new running backs..should I go wire or dyneema?

Hi Still,
What clevis pin size is the Hyfield lever?
If it's 5/8" you might want to go up to 5/16" wire.
If you plan on using the IFS for a storm sail. You would probably feel better about having the larger wire anyway.
