OK, so I received the thimble from TRE today. Beefy piece of kit.
The install went far too easy. I was able to pull the line from inside itself, no cutting, and it was already tapered and ready for install. I used the fid that came with and fed the line back into itself like the videos show. The rec for 3/8" line was 3 and I ended up with close to 4 fid. The tape is the end of the line.
So, did I do it correctly?? It seemed far to easy. I get that it tightens onto itself but nothing else needs to be done? It literally took 5 mins to install. When something goes that easy, I get nervous. I guess I will pull something and find out
