Hi all, does anyone know of a parts source to change out a dynanic brake housing on an Athearn Genesis GP7 to a non-dynamic brake version. I purchased a pair of MEC painted GP7s recently and am planning on stripping the paint on them and updating some parts as they’d have looked in 1980. As part of this process, I was also wanting to change them over to non-dynamic brake equipped versions. Thanks for any help you can provide! I’ve searched all over the web unsuccessfully.
Have you actually tried contacting Athearn for a non-dynamic part ? They have a lot of parts that aren’t listed on their site. They make a non-dynamic version, so they must have the part - it should be listed in the exploded diagram that came with it.
Mark.
