Hey guys,

I'm about to order the fairleads for my fuselage. I'm a bit confused about the sizing. I've got 3/4" inner diameter of the failead tube, nothing special here. The length of the tube pieces is 3/4" as well, but which tube do I need from ACS?

3/4 * 1" or 3/4 * 3/4" ? Which length is the correct one? Unfortunately there is no drawing, so I don't know whether the lenght given is the actual length of the fairlead or the lenght of the tube in which is is installed...

Thank you for chiming in!
