    Rossi FKS - Heel piece repair

    Hey Everyone, I'd love some advice. I've got a pair of orange FKS's, and while the bindings are in fairly good shape, theres one place with some serious wear. One of the adjustment screws is kinda rusted out and snapped, so I can't really adjust it. In addition, these heel pieces are pretty loose and floppy. Does anyone know if its possible to replace the adjustment screws

    It can be done, and someone posted a write up on how to do it with pics and a step by step. It's pretty involved and involves removing the heel loop/support, and then replacing/modifying it for reinstall after the adjustment screws are replaced. If you decide to go down that road, I do have a bunch of extra adjustment screws laying around!

    Edit: here it is. Scroll down to step 12.

    This is a great write up. However, I cant find anywhere to purchase replacement adjustment arms. Does anyone know if these are purchasable? Look wont sell them, and told me the entire heel piece needs to be replaced

    Not as far as I know... but when you buy replacement turntable/brake assemblies from rossi, they send you adjustment arms as well. I have a few pairs of them, PM me your address and I'll send a pair or two your way.
