I have a Sho-Bud Maverick. Was wondering what the correct name is of the hard plastic piece that connects the pedal rod to the push-pull rod in the steel?

A "Thingamabopper™" I believe...

Sorry I couldn't resist.

Farris,

Actually, the aircraft application is called a Hieme Joint. On the Bud, I don't know. Maybe Bobbe will spot this and tell him.

Bellcrank equilizer/puller? Bobbe would know,and also have them, or a replacement part if you have a broken one.
