David, If you're looking at reheading all the rigging, think about pulling the rig, removing all the shrouds, coiling them up and taking them to a NavTec shop. You can coil the rod to no LESS than 200 times diameter and strap it to an "X" made of 2 x 4's for transport. UPS will ship it.
You didn't say where you were. There may be a NavTec shop near you. Throw it in a pickup and drive it there. Before you coil it, make a list of each rod and carefully measure the pin to pin distance. That is, between the centers of the hole in each end. Also measure the pin diameters. Now you have a record of the rig. Dennis C.
