There are plenty of options and people that will fix your cams.

Check out Wired Bliss to get any brand of your cams refurbished. $5 for each sling or repair. Trigger wire repair includes headed pins, sleeves, and wire for all cam lobes on most cams.

Thanks for the thread, I was going through my rack and found one of the wires on my #4 camalot was nearly cut in two. Kinda weird the piece on my rack that has been used the least, was abused the most.

I used 1/16" aircraft cable and swaged it in place, and also realize I cut the cable a bit too short. I also found the only good thing about the first gen U cable camelots is the trigger will rotate if one cable is shorter than the other, and the cams will still open evenly.

BD definately went with wimpy cable on their cam triggers.

anybody aware of a similar multi-brand cam repair service as to what Wired Bliss was offering prior to their hiatus early this year?
