I only saw one reply to you question so I'll offer my "opinion". I don't think the bellcrank bearings should have any side loads induced on them in our cable control system setup. The cable grove is very small and needs a "cable keeper" on each pulley to keep the cable from jumping off the pulley. If you have cable pulleys in you system with "side loads" I would suggest you re-design the system to eliminate the problem. Larry Flesner
