What was found
(CAN) BOTH ELEVATOR CABLES FORK END ARE IN A VERY CORROSIVE LOCATION FOR MARINE FLOAT PLANES. ONE FORK END SNAPPED JUST BY UNSCREWING IT FROM THE TURNBUCKLE BY HAND DURING AN INSPECTION. I WOULD SUGGEST TO REPLACE BY THE EQUIVALENT IN STAINLESS STEEL P/N: MS21252C5RL. (TC# 20190417011)
