Chuck, I wish the 35-2 had that access port through the cockpit floor. Unfortunately it does not. Worse, the cables are terminated with U-bolts on the wire, so it will require loosening the U bolts (two of them) then pulling the wire tight and then retightening the U-bolts. Probably done when my yard folks redid the steering on Cat's Paw after Irene in 2010, when the cables broke. I think this is probably a job for them, as trying to reach the quadrant from the port lazarette is really hard.
