Default Looking for 1/4 scale float hardware.

Can anyone tell me where to buy any hardware for usa 1/4 scale floats. pulleys etc. for retract water rudders and steering, have built some which are on the plane( cessna 182) but seem to be getting brittle and keep breaking. Any suggestions in this area would greatly be appreciated.

Tower has proctor pulleys.

If you want to save approximately the gross national product of Uganda, I just use 2-56 eyebolts. They work just like the guides on a fishing rod. Not as scale, but they work as well(maybe better) Also from tower:http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...=RF&search3=Go
