Will a Rock-Ola 461 support a wallbox?

I have had a 461 for several years and it works and sounds great. This weekend i picked up a Rock-Ola model 504 wall box at the flea market, mainly for the cool factor. However when i got it home, it appears to be in really really good shape. So my question is, will the 461 support this? If so what stepper will i need in order to interface the two together? The wiring has been removed entirely from the connections in the wall box, so i would likely need the plug ends for the stepper as well. Thanks in advance, this is my first post here, but this place is a wealth of knowledge for sure!

Hopefully, someone will know this "by heart"--i don't--but it should show this in the service manual, or service manual package---

Hi
Stepper 1769 is needed for the rockola 461 and the wallbox will work with it, there should be plugs in the jukebox for the stepper and connection points behind the chassis to wire up the jukebox to the wallbox

I guess in my excitement for getting the needed information, i didnt realize how hard it might be to find the 1769 stepper. Anybody happen to have one laying around they would part with?

Hi
Try the suppliers listed on the site, but they do come up on ebay every so often, main problem with steppers are the plastic gears that may need replacing but they can be got as spare parts
