My Frankenstein stopped working and I found the longer shaft on the motor that spins the four gears broke.
This is the shaft that's broke.

I found what appeared to the be the right part on Planetary Pinball, ordered, received and appears to be wrong.
I did the same thing at Ministry of Pinball and Australia spare parts and they all come the same but appear to be wrong.

Here is what I'm recieving.

One end is square so it doesn't fit in the round hole or the round gear.
One gear is square for it to fit but the other is round as is the housing on both sides where the shaft is supposed to fit.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Part number?

This could explain the big holdup on the remake. If and when it comes, your part should then be available.

Sorry about that. I should have put that in the first post.
Part #02-5443 Monster Mech. Assembly Drive Shaft

Quoted from jtaudio:

Shaft from MM is the correct one for MB that is incorrectly listed in the manual. This is it:

That appears visually to be wrong also or am I looking at it wrong?
The broken shaft is round on one end and square on the other
That one looks to be square one both ends also like the others I've bought.
I'll order it and give it a try.
Thanks.

Find a local welder, and have them fix it for you. Had to do the same thing on my old shadow.

Hey Elevatorman
Contact PPS and explain that whoever machined 02-5443 for them did so incorrectly and get a refund or the correct part. There were many of these incorrectly machined 02-5443 parts floating around years ago and even though everyone was informed, may still have some lingering around.
The photo of 02-5443 on the MOP website shows a correctly machined part. So if that is in fact what they have in stock, it is the right one.

It looks like Marco and PSPA are O/S.

I have them the dick who made them made them all wrong, Marco piggybacked my order and the supplier made them wrong for them as well

I had to pay to have them made again

Well that sucks

Contacted PPS and the picture on the website is right but the part is wrong.
They are looking into it.
Marco says they have not been able to get that part since 2014.
Looks like I'll try to get a machinist to make a batch of them for others that may need them also.
Unless anyone else knows a place to get one.
Thanks.

I don't know if every part is available or on Planetary Pinball Supply's website. A lot more has become available since the remake.
