WTB: AGE the challenger candy crane parts

I have extra parts for these. I have trollies, but they are missing parts, belts, etc. Let me know where you are located and I'll see what one would cost to ship.

im looking for a trolly for this crane. could also use a manual. anyone have any parts or info? thanks!!
 
It seems that S&B Entertainment now owns the old AGE line. that is where we have been getting parts to keep our old fleet of them running.
 
Thanks mvco,
I have not had time to check with Smart Ind. yet. Per Ken, Thanks again Ken! They were really helpful the last time I called so I have no problem dealing with them. Do you have any contact info? I am only finding info on S&B Amusements out of TX. If you have many Challengers, have you ever had one take the money flash a 1 in the credit then back to Zero? If you hold the joystick forward when you put the quarter in everything else works. You are able to play once. The main board is the non programmable type. I have checked the Coin accepters, and the candy detect sensor. Those check out.

Any info on these would be great!
Or a spare working main board to purchase.

Thanks for all your Help I will post any updates I have once I contact S&B. Most of the items online are newer than the model I have. I'm sure there are more Challenger cranes out there that are just sitting.
 
I bought new belts from sandbsales.com. They were translucent, probably poly and the ends were "welded" together. I wonder if you get the same thing from McMaster carr or if the quality is better. Warning - they were super hard to get on but then started slipping. I'm sure the whole trolley needs cleaned and lubed and the pulleys need spray tack on them. After a year of sitting unused in the heat of my Arizonan garage, they became deformed and unusable. Maybe putting them in boiling water for a bit will spring them back?
 
I have a full set of non-used belts. I will try to have pictures and measurements as soon as possible. I did check on S&B's site and did not find any support of the older equipment. Thinking going forward McMaster –Carr may be the cheapest solution. N8smith, did you have to call S&B?

Yes you have to call and talk to a guy there, I forgot his name. They haven't sold or supported these in a long time but he still knows what you need.
 
These aren't bad units. Provided they are adjusted properly, they work for years. I had one with a cold solder joint - fixed that, and it literally worked on location for years and years.
 
Belt lengths and measurements

Here are pictures of the Belts, I put the Measurements on the pics. too.
Large belt is 36 5/8" long
Medium belt 10 11/16" long
Small belt 8 7/8"
Belt dia. is 1/8" thick.
