I am looking at redoing my rod rigging in the next few months. I know this
topic has been discussed in the  past, but I would appreciate your input.


My upper spreaders are badly corroded at the tip- and so I am going to
replace them. Does anybody have suggestions for where I can obtain just the
tips? or do I have to replace the entire spreaders?

I am also considering re-heading most of the rod, rather than replacing, as
I can't afford to replace it all at this time. Does anyone have experience
with getting the rod re-headed rather than replaced? I think I will have to
replace the upper diagonal and the shroud that goes from the lower spreader
to the top of the mast. I would then re-head the backstay, and the lower
shroud and lower diagonal. The forestay is new.

Does anyone have experience with replacing the mast fittings? I understand
the fittings that were originally used are now considered obsolete.

Finally, how much did people spend on their replacing the rod rigging?

thanks again for the helpful advice
