I recently purchased a Franklin D-10. I love the sound and the playability but having a hard time finding bellcranks. Someone told me that there was a bellcrank available that would slide on like Mullen or Zum but I haven't had any luck finding the supplier. Seems like if someone could machine those, they would sell a lot of them. If anyone has any ideas, I would appreciate it..
Thanks in advance,
Wally |

Hi Wally I make these:
These are for a 3/8 squair shaft I can do 5/16 hex like Sho Bud also.

The ones that look like this would be easy to replicate, 5/16" round shaft, large set screw

Wally let me know if you find someone who can machine them up -- I could use a few myself, especially for compensators.
