I have a Capcom Bowling (not sure if it's a dedicated cab, it could be) that needs new shaft/bearings in the trackball. Being as this is my first experience with them, can you tell me if this is an Atari or Capcom trackball? As far as I can tell, it is a 4" trackball, but the pictures i've seen of both kits look to close for me to id this trackabll...

Looks suspiciously like the Atari 4" / 4.5" maxi Trak-Ball - but it's not. Or if it is, then it's been modified. Opto boards aren't right for the Atari-Trak ball, neither is the wheel that spins through the opto board. Looks very close though. Never seen a Capcom Trak-Ball.

So ..... not standard Atari.

Are you sure? It looks a lot like the one that was in my MC Cockpit.
 
I've got a dedicated Capcom Bowling and the trackball looks like that. Don't have any pics though here at work to compare. I can look tonight.
 
anyone have any other ideas? i want to place an order for this tonight. let me know if you think this is a capcom trackball...
