Installing the new format quadrant obviates the need for the inspections. Apparently the original quadrant bent the cable too sharply and a new one was designed to fix it. Sorry, I don’t have part numbers.

This AD calls for the removal of these cables every 100 hours, so that they can be replaced if not in "perfect" condition. I used a borescope to check mine and discovered some corrosion where they wrap into their attachment point. My question is, 1) should I remove them in place or am I better off pulling the whole control column out for a rebuild?
2) The AD lists 4 approved modifications that if installed, eliminate the 100 hour inspection. Does anyone know what these might entail?
