Just thought I would revive this thread to help with other fellow Rockola jukebox owners. I managed to buy a few "very hard to find in the states" 45's for a fair price. Unknown to me was the fact that most or all UK 45's were small hole. I own a Rockola 470. My turntable already had working drop fingers so I didn't have to mess with that. The problem was the singles were playing at slow 33 1/3 speed. Of course the first search came up with "Dinking", which quite honestly I wasn't comfortable with the possibility of breaking my newly shipped overseas 45's. The next search found this topic. The Rockola 470 was the same or similar core parts so I made the mod by pulling part #22. Voila, perfect. Playing all 45's at the same speed. This topic is good stuff and works great.
