Trim cable questions

I need a new trim cable for my back country pa18 replica with overhead trim.

Does any know if this is a standard piper cable or a special?

Whats the pros and cons with galvanised or stainless steel?

Who supplies them?


Thanks in advance
 
What happened to your original cable Colin? It shouldn't have failed in the amount of time which you have on it.
 
It was slipping so I shortened the spring. I think too much tension upset the splice.
 
I can't help you with the length as my cub has stock trim, but you might want to check the pulleys and make sure none are seized to the bushings. The trim cable in my cub frayed and jammed because of seized pulleys. I couldn't believe how smooth the trim operates after the fix.
