Default Question On Rudder Cables

In a May 10 posting on Rudder Cable Systems JJ had a great list of things to check on during annual inspections. Item #1 dealt with the nylon sleeve in the "S" tube that prevents metal-to-metal contact. While working on my DISCUS B yesterday I noticed that the nylon sleeves on both "S" tubes had migrated aft -- out of the top of the "S" tube, resulting in metal-to-metal contact at the lower end of the "S" tube. Tried to shove them back in but to no avail. Is there a magic way to correct this situation?

Want to fix this before flying again.
