Thanks Tony, Is it advisable to install one or two on the TP cables?

Install one into each of the cables... ie you need four or six
turnbuckles all told. Six if you have Graham's tailwheel mod, four if
you don't.

Some people have been able to install the counterbalance arm wire
without turnbuckles but I found that they came in really useful for
tweaking the position of the arm so that it ran centrally within
counterbalance guide. The ones in the rudder cables running internally
will allow you to adjust the cable easily and will also allow you to
draw the cables forward from underneath the pulleys to check for wear. 

Tony
