I have a Bachman Rf Shark DCC that the socket for the dogbone seems to be loose. I can slide it on and off the shaft of the gear box. Any ideas for a fix or new parts? thanks John

Call Bachmann?

The socket is cracked.  The part is unique to Bachmann.  You can't glue that plastic.  You might be able to make a collar out of brass tube to squeeze it down onto the drive shaft but I don't think there is enough area to work with.

(although a proper spare-part from B'mann would be the better solution...

. . .

Bachmann has " Bachmann's Lifetime Limited Warranty  "  so why even bother.

You can not get the yoke as a separate  part, You need to purchase the truck assembly and will be 17$ +S/H.

 

 

Silver or Black truck ass.

Thanks that was the info

Thanks that was the info needed. I could only find the dogbone not the yoke. I will probably get a new truck. Thank to all for the help. John
