    The rb300 was a drop in replacement although i think you needed a shim to centre it in hole. So basically it should be same bar hole size being a tad wider

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    This TD160 has had the sub-chassis and mounting plate for a SME 3009, hence the request.

    Thanks TAD. You need to speak to jonnie7 at audio origami he has come up with a method of replacing the rubber bias belt, just google his website audio origami, virtually everyone in the uk forums sends jonnie tonearm a to be repaired, I've sent probably 10-15 over the years. Hope this helps.

    The belts fall apart whether the arm is used or not. I note that there is somebody supplying a belt kit on eBay again. It's not the hardest job in the world to replace one, but you do need a practical nature (I did mine --- still got photos of the job in progress).

    thanks so much guys. will find the box first and then maybe do some further mods to an old AR, The Turntable XD serial number, with the original arm. Just got a new power supply and motor, from Eric Whitacre. (Sound of the Wood) in the US. Lovely stuff. http://www.soundofthewoodaudio.com. Fitted it myself with some additional drilling for motor mounting.
    Once up and running will post some photos.

    If you intend to rebuild an R200. Do it on a tray with high sides. As you dismantle the arm stem, the tiny ball bearings in the races tend to drop out and get lost very easily. A tray will catch them. Use fine 'sewing machine oil' type lubricant on these horizontal bearings, not grease and not silicone oil (it disperses too quickly).
