I found out today that for 50 they (Aircraft Spruce) will make it in 5 to 10 days. That’s what I have chosen.

Why is it bound up? Sometimes if you completely unscrew the friction lock, you can find something amiss in there. If it's the other end, it should just be a lubrication issue.

Or, does anyone know who makes the throttle cables for Aircraft Spruce? I will give them a call and try to get moved up on the list. Supply chain issues.

Thanks but no. I have a 60” which is too short.

Sorry Kevin. One I have is only 50”. Let me know if you still want it.
