Original tiller availability or dimensions

[Askold]

I have an older J22 with the straight tiller.  Sadly it has suffered a catastrophic failure.

Is a replacement available (not the new, curved one).

Or does anyone have the dimensions?  I can have one made.

I remember that the tiller was rather slender and tapered and straight.

Thanks

Hello Askold - 

I swapped mine out for a curved one years ago.  I may have the old one in storage.  Let me look for it, and if you pay the shipping, you can have it for free.  Pics to follow tomorrow.

Sorry about the shadows but you should be able to see the tiller.  Let me know if you're interested.  It has a couple of small holes for the tiller extension on top, and the holes for mounting, but other than that it's in good condition.

Yes, I'd love to have it.  It looks fine.  Some sand paper and varnish is all it needs.

How can I pay for the shipping?

Thanks

Where are you? I'll figure out the best way to ship and let you know the cost, then we'll figure out the logistics.

I'm in Los Angeles.

OK.  I'll check UPS and USPS to see the best way to get a tube to you.
