I just bought some Tri Cams that are about 10 yrs. old so I need to have them re-slung. Does anyone know a good place?

You should also check the pins are secure. There was a recent recall of Tricams because of the pin that supports the strap being loose. I commend the company for issuing a recall because there has only been a single tricam found to have a loose pin. I think this goes to show that this company is VERY serious about safety.

that pin issue was/is specifically related to the dyneema slung tricams released in/near 2008 (more recent than 10 yrs).
there was another one back in '03 for a specific lot related to a crack or something.
it's never a bad idea to check for loose parts or cracks though.

to the OP:
yates will resling for you, and i KNOW they're good.
here's another site that offers to resling, but i've never used them: http://www.mtntools.com/cat/rclimb/cams/mt_camresling.htm

Thanks, Yates will not do Tri Cams but the other place will so after seeing if anyone close will do them then I will send them off.
