I need a long car for my RWO RB2 series mainsheet traveller system.  Web sites show very nice pictures of what I need, with explanations of how good they are, retailer web sites even give me the part number (R3443) and price

However RWO cannot source them, the wholesaler has none in stock, the retailers scratch their heads.

Anyone out there with any idea where I might find one of these ellusive pieces of kit. Thanks for taking the time to consider my plight

Dave

Check with them that they actually do have some.

I was lucky to find the short car at my local Chandlers but it me ages to get cat unit adaptor.

In the end, RWO make up about three units from old stock so that I could get one

  Thanks to all who made comments, and no I had not thought about googling the part number.  In the end, as I had nothing to loose, I managed to take the unit apart. RWO sent me some end caps for free (not avilable as a spare part ). I then bought 75 torlon bals to reasemble the unit

Thanks again for the comments
