I'll try to photograph my progress and post it when I'm done.

RETAP: with the R53 compensator cable maybe wire rather than string and use the handbrake adjuster nut and another as a lock nut to secure it and ensure it doesn't come off?



Hi, yeah thanks for that. I still havent done this job its on for tomorow tho and decided to stick with modding what i got rather than get a R53 type


So ordered the SS link bit but thought the rest was on the old compensator cant find a photo showing the side of compensator to check so might have to order a clevis pin as well by sounds of it. Any idea what size as cant seem to find that info easily....


Ill be using a drill with milling bits as not posh enough to own an angle grinder, still got two fingers left to show the man.
