I like the Garhauer lead cars, but Harken and Schaefer are also good. Just Be sure to order cars for the size track you have.

Thanks for the info. I went to the Garhauer Marine site and looked them over. The specs measured near identical to my old set. I ordered a set from them.

Be careful to not step on them, Garhauer uses thin cheeks. I replaced nearly all of My Garhauer blocks with Shaefer and Harken that I bought on Ebay. Ebay is wonderful for sailing parts.
