Not really sure what you are asking, a more specific question would help.

There is a supplement/attachment to 43-13 that specifically deals with rigging skis.

You didn't say what airplane you intend to install them on but if it's a 170 and you have all the L-19 attachment hardware, there isn't really any rigging to do. The rigging is mostly done once the attachment hardware is in place.

There are different types of springs or bungees that can be used, your choice.

I have installed AWB2500 skis but really don't know what Info you are looking for.

This is for a 170B. I have all hardware but I was under the impression there was a document as to specific up/down angles the cables would limit the skis along with specific recommended attachment locations. Tow in/out position, etc. something specific to the awb2500's.
