Looking for parts for my Bach 42B: The linkage plug and lock ring (old style) are missing from my F-trigger. Does anyone have these available for sale?

Thanks!

I might have an entire 42 linkage from a conversion. I’ll try to dig it up later today feel free to gently nudge me if I forget

Hickey's sells them in the 'Replacement Parts' section of their trombone site.

True, but someone suggested that I post on Trombone Chat in case someone has an extra set they don’t need.

But did they fit?

I have an older 42B, and also had to replace the plug and lock ring this past year. What Hickey's sold me did not fit - of course they were quick to refund, they're always reputable. But there may be two sizes out there, I dunno. Someone here on the forum helped me with an extra he had.

Yes, the parts from Hickey’s fit and worked well.

Ed's 42b is from 1978 if that helps any.
