Willis, if you find one would you please let me know? Mine has a homemade lever which works fine, but I have to take it off to put it in the case, which is a real nuisance.

| I have late 80,s SD-10 MCI 3X5 that has the left vertical knee lever. I could send you drawing of exactly how it,s machined. I also have read that lone star in Tx. makes parts for MCI. James |

| Hi Willis, I have a Carter vertical on my MCI D10 which works great, although you will probably need to get a GFI crossrod for it -- if you can't source the genuine MCI bits that is. Just note that the GFI crossrods are slightly smaller in girth so you might need to get the GFI bellcranks as well. |

Paddy, does the Carter vertical fold down when you pack it up? The one I have has to be disassembled when I put it in the case. I have the crossrod and the pulls, it's just that the KL is inconvenient and also hangs down too far.

yep the knee lever just folds over backwards when I pack her in the case. Just make sure that before you mount it that it will clear the other knee levers - so you have room to flip it over.

I have heard GFI Vertical or their regular knee levers will fit a MCI or EMCI. I could possibly get you made if you wish.
