I'm doing an annual on a Tiger that had the braces for the horizontal
replaced last year. The shop that did it is one of the best. However,
the cable tension to the elevator was over 90 lbs (off the scale on my
tensioner).

Should I sue the last guy to work on this plane? Or, do you think it
would be more contructive to correct the problem and let the shop know
what I found so that can correct the source of the mistake?

Damn it, I'm calling my lawyer . . . .

I just finished an annual on a Tiger that had the elevator cable tension set
way to high. I think they adjusted it by feel, comparing it to the aileron
cables possibly.

Gary you don't have to have a law degree to be a lawyer in Calefornia

Yes, Calefornia as the governator says it...

Go for it and take over their business!

When I was rerigging the cables, I noticed that if I put the center
pulley on the cable tensioner on the pulley's axel, it read about 40
lbs. My guess is whoever did it didn't know how to use the tensioner.
