All in unison now, "Group groan."
Looking at the photo, you can see the distance from the rear of the adjuster to the center of the pull hole. Taking into account the depth inside the adjuster, if I let 2-9/16" be exposed here, the adjuster will be out of the perch. If 2-9/16" is the total exposed (with the bottom adjuster on the cable), it appears the cable will come up about 3/8" short.
Obviously, I'm determined to beat this to death. Feel free to grab a bludgeon and join in if you want, but if I've proven myself too thick to absorb advice, you are free to sit in the stands and just point your thumbs up or down while I await the lions.
