Hi.. I have my federal drawings for the chief and the champ somewhere. I'll try and find them OR i know a guy who has the info. If I remember right, it is not the length we measured, but the angle the ski made at various pitch angles that is important. Although, once you have a chief or champ rigged right, then I guess it is a measured affair. If you can't find the details in a week or so, give me a call-I will look for the drawings in the meanwhile. John goritchan--Duluth,mn 218-213-6030
Federal Ski Installation
Hi Richard try here:
http://www.treetopflyers.org/Ski%20Draw ... 0A1500.pdf
On a Champ the from cable is approx.45 inches the rear cable is 32 to 35 inches
I just came across the Federal ski installation PDF somewhere on the web but for the life of me I can't find it now and I didn't bookmark it as I have a copy on file.
Hope this helps
PS Richard I sent you a PM
