Capstan Kit; Bridle Cable - Garmin G3X Touch Installation Manual

17.5.2.8 Capstan Kit

The capstan kit is part number 011-02952-02. This kit contains a capstan, a cable guard, and fasteners
used to attach these items.
The capstan is designed to accept a MS20663C2 double shank ball with a 1/16" diameter cable. This kit
does not currently include a bridle cable or cable clamps necessary to link the capstan to the flight control
cables as these items are generally specific to each aircraft type. The required bridle cable (Figure 17-5) is
a 1/16" cable with a MS20663C2 ball and double shank fitting swaged onto the cable where it engages
with the capstan drive wheel. The MS20664C2 ball and shank fittings on the ends keep the cable from
fraying.
Several companies sell custom made cable assemblies suitable for this application, a few of these are:

NOTE
When determining the length of the bridle cable to be ordered, be sure to allow for enough
cable to make the required number of wraps around the capstan (see
