When switching cams you will also have to replace the cables and string and most likely the limbs as well (if you want to retain the same poundage).

By the time you do all that you are better off buying a new Magnatec/UltraMag/UltraSport

I don't know if you'd have to change limbs, but you'd definitely need a #3 idler (you've got a #4 now) a 57" string and a 43.5" buss cable. If you change all that, you might as well replace the other cable as well. I would think Hoyt would still stock replacement parts.

I agree with Jeff though. By the time you've rebuilt that one, you'd be spending more than the bow is worth. I'd find somebody to buy that bow, then take the proceeds plus the cost of the replacement parts you're talking about and get yourself a new bow that fits you properly.

Opps..forgot about the Idler. Yep thats another added cost.

If you don't mind a change of 4-6 pounds of peak weight, then you wouldn't have to buy the limbs.

Yup. You can figure a hundred bucks probably for cam & idler. another 50 for string and cables. Factor in new limbs and thats likely another 75 to 100 bucks (assuming ZR limbs, XTs will be more)

Then the labor charge to do the job, unless you have a dealer who will do it at no cost.

And that's assuming Hoyt has the parts. They probably do, but they are notorious for phasing out replacement parts very quickly.
