aeroflyer 0 #1 September 13, 2012 How long should it take to replace the lower brake line below the toggle loop (where the toggle goes through) I have one completely frayed strand in the spectra and possibly another on the way, so thought I'd get it done. Is this generally considered "lower brake line replacement", or does it usually include that toggle loop? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
irishrigger 32 #2 September 13, 2012 Hiya, if its just the lower brake line below the toogle loop its an easy fix. Any rigger should do that in less than 10min. As for ths cost. I normally charge about 20 bucks and replace both sides at the same time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #3 September 13, 2012 Quote Any rigger should do that in less than 10min. How long it takes, of course, is a different answer, depending on where you are in the long line of other shit the rigger has on his/her list.

aeroflyer 0 #4 September 13, 2012 Ok, thanks for the info. I'll probably take it in before the weekend so they have time to do it... yeah, there is probably a huge lineup from tandem rigging! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Depending on the rigger and the time of day, there ARE ways to grease the wheels and get it moving a little faster. Lunch time and they've been stuck rigging/packing so far all day, offer to get them something to eat/something to drink (don't tempt them with alcohol yet) Dinner-ish and they're finally finishing the work for the day, offer to get them something to eat and/or a cold beer. Not saying it WILL work, but it probably wouldn't hurt your chances of skipping a couple spots up their to-do list.

Poor planning on your part does not make a crisis for the rigger. Why wait until the last second so everything is a rush. Plan ahead and get your gear worked on during the Off season.

Manifest guy caught it, I asked for his pen and corrected the card on the spot. Guess I forgot to sign my data card the week prior when I repacked it.
