Here ya go, internet strikes again. There is actually a couple different ones, this is to a Girard unit.

I bought this Girard unit from Girard.  Looks like the reviews are not good.  Man.... I violated my own principles and did not read the reviews first. Does anyone have any experience or comments on  this particular unit?

Thanks for the links, Lee.

All I really need is the cups as the rest of the unit is ok.

Have you seen this thread with the link on where to buy the replacement cups?

Thanks.

Jeff,  As I found out the hard way you might double check the shaft will still spins. I ordered one and it wasn't till I was up there putting it on that I noticed ti was seized.  I had a nice wind-cup that wasn't going to do any good.
