Can anyone with a Jurassic Park help me out and take some photos of the bottom side of the T-Rex? Mainly where the spring is supposed to be.

I thought I had it right but was having issues with the T-Rex not grabbing the ball. After looking at the manual, I noticed i was missing a washer. However when I add the washer, I have no place to hook the spring too. Before, I had the spring in between the crank arm and the E-ring. With the extra washer added, there is no longer any room for the spring. Right now, I have the spring attached through the slot in the crank arm. It rides up and down the slot as the motor turns. It works and the t-rex eats the ball but I know its not correct.

In this picture here:

He is missing the e-ring it looks like and it appears that he has the spring resting in the groove where the e-ring would clip into.


The manual does not even show a spring being used. But without it, the t-rex does not go all the way down. I made a quick drawing to help.

Any help?

Yes. Thank you very much. So it looks like no E-Ring is even used. Strange that the manual calls for one but does not even mention the spring.

It appears that my spring might be a little stretched out. This should be fun trying to find a replacement when I cant find a part number anywhere.
 
I was just thumbing through the manual the other day and found a slew of inconsistencies. Good luck searching.
 
Found it...

Part# 265-5017-01

bayarea lists it for Jurassic Park. Sold out though. Guess its another Marco order....
