Good evening,
I have a pair of Weaver E8's I bought a few months ago and didn't get around to testing until last night. As luck would have it, one of the units has a bad truck. The gear that meshes with the worm cracked and causes the motor/gear to lock up. I disassembled the axle and took the broken gear out which made it a dummy truck. I would like to get a replacement. I know it's a stretch but does anyone carry parts for Weaver products? I was going to use a Williams truck (they are almost identical) but all of the spares I have are ungeared trucks. I may try a Williams truck if I can find one. I don't know of anyone that has Williams parts anymore. Bachmann is sold out and I struck out on the bay when searching for Weaver and Williams trucks. Any help would be appreciated. Picture of cracked gear with crack visible on the top.
