Reply To: New Johnson Rope Pull Handles.

Well, for the 25 HP, it is the cable wrapped in cloth rope. It is pretty thick. It is in excellent condition so I wanted to re- use it. I could not even get the rope started in the hole much less pull it through with MIG wire. I contacted Rich and he is sending a replacement even tho I (and not him)wrecked the original one he sent. (Thank you Rich).

He suggested freezing the rope pull, then drilling the hole bigger. I may try that and see what happens.
