Hi Ron, guys, gals...
Okay, I have a 42-1012, just bought a changer for it. Good news: motor is good, photocell is good. Bad news: the drive wheels are shot and the stylus assembly had the mirror installed wrongly. I'm going to laser-cut two side plates to the big wheel to make a pulley, then use an O-ring as a tire. On the small end, I will press-fit a neoprene bushing and lathe-turn it to proper OD. So the drive wheels should come back. But the stylus assembly will need help. I tried unsoldering the stylus pivot, but the stylus jewel itself came off. Resoldering by a non-jeweler (me) yielded a working pickup, but very poorly with the hack job I did.
So, I remember using Mr.Cochrane for replacing a photocell on my 41-608 pickup a few years back. But he didn't seem to have anything to offer when it came to styli or drive wheels. Does anybody know of any other purveyors of these BOL parts? Thanks all...
