My string on my cp400 broke. The front end is basically a ravin and when it broke, I lost 2 pieces that centerpoint doesn't sell. I've emailed 3 times in 2 months with no response. The bow shop said they have seen it and it's a repair that costs more than I paid for the crossbow.

Anyway, I am looking if any of you have some ideas for it. I found on another board that you can glue 4 woodruff keys(5mmx7.5mmx19mm) together and it's basically the same (20x7.5x19) part but I'm not sure how comfortable I am with jb welding this component. Does anyone have any idea?

Did you call or email Ravin? I have a CP400 and the string blew up on me towards the end of last season. I tried Centerpoint a few times but basically got told to take it to a dealer. They also offered to send me new strings. Eventually I was able to RMA it and send it back to Ravin. They replaced the front end free under warranty.
 
If those CP rockers are like the Ravin rockers, then any local Ravin dealer will have those rockers in stock. I have built quite a few Ravin string/cables over the last few years. Guys shoot them until the cable blow and then they lose the rockers. I just go to the local shop and pick up some more.

If you don't have a Ravin dealer near you, shoot me a pm and I will get some and send them to you.

Forgot about ravin. I've just tried centerpoint. I'll call them and see what they say. Centerpoint has been terrible to deal with and I think I had to contact ravin about the crank they sent with the crossbow.

Thanks, that's awesome. I was seriously thinking of just scraping the crossbow since i couldnt locate any.

The only ravin dealer, per ravin website,near me said they don't carry ravin.

I bought strings and cables and the tech said he can do it if I can find the rockers. but also said the last person that came in missing them, Centerpoint wanted him to send it back in for a complete limb change for $600. They wouldn't provide the rockers.

I'm going to reach out to ravin. I'll pm you if ravin says they can't send the parts.
