Not sure whether other people have had trouble finding this part or not, but it sure took me a while so I thought I’d drop a line to make the next guys life easier. Call Chi at Probast Automotive – (818)526-4510. He’s totally nice and helpful and has a tone of them, selling for about a buck and a half each. The genuine article. Plus he mails through the post office so it’s not that expensive shipping wise. Just FYI. –Bragi ---

If they are the new ones they are totally the wrong style, you need to find old stock… The new ones are very short, chrome plated and round not hex shaped… These are what the new ones look like this The correct ones look like this If they are the correct ones and old stock you got VERY lucky… ---

Yeah, well I did buy all those and paid a pretty penny to get them shipped to me… But, as things go I have sold or traded most of them away to other GB prop builders and only kept enough for my projects… They are very hard to come by, but I’m sure if you really want them and devote the time you can source them… ---

We’ll see I guess when they arrive. But I gave him the right part number, so hopefully we’re on the same page. –Bragi ---

I only bought as many as I needed, and as I’m not interested in getting into the re-selling business, I’m passing along the tip to others who want to buy them directly from Chi at Probast (see number above). They are the longer [legris](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/legris) joints with a black cap on the top of them (I think it’s removeable though I haven’t tried). The hexagonal part of the connector is exactly ten millimeters long. As for posting a pic, I’ve had difficulty posting pics to this site in the past. Not sure how to do it. Sorry. ---

They were about a buck and a half each, I think. Pretty cheap. I called back this morning to try to pick up a few more for some friends, and they’re offices are closed due to the fires raging down there. Hope they’re all okay. I’ll let you guys know if they have more. –B ---

Called the number listed above (checked it in my cell to make sure I didn’t dial wrong number) and did not get Probast Automotive. The person I spoke with said that someone else was calling for the same thing. Searched in the Yellow Pages for Probast Automotive and no listing comes up for them in California (even searched for Probast in CA and no listings appeared). Is the phone number correct? Thanks. ---

Maaan, those went fast! A couple people called him yesterday and ordered a bunch and I bought the last dozen myself. I may have some extras left over, and I’ll let you guys know. –B ---

That’s what I’m thinking about having done for my pack is to find some hex fittings and have the end machined off a bit to have that little collar on it.
