Re: Rowe R86 gas springs

Ron Many times that information is stamped on the gas spring, but, it is usually coded.

Rowe R86 gas springs

Re: Rowe R86 Jukebox Repairs?

Thanks Ron Rich, those are the foam seals I was talking about, however I noticed some are 1/2" thick and I'm not sure that can be bought in a hardware store. I will check the local True Value though. Do you have any idea if using electronic tuner cleaner would be alright to use as a cleaner for...

Re: Rowe R86 Jukebox Repairs?

Hello gang I just purchased a R86 which is in need of new foam seals and was wondering what I could use to replace the deteriorated ones. Or is there an outlet to purchase these from. Also can I clean the pins and plugs using electronic contact cleaner? Thanks in advance.
