Oops. Slide bounced like a pogo stick when it fell off a table. One of the inner tubes is slightly bent.

Need a replacement slide. Nut on slide assembly attaches to threads on bell. Outer diameter of bell threads is 3/4 inch.

EBay pictures indicate a slide from an Olds or Reynolds might work.

You might want to try a King 606 slide also.

You'll probably more quickly and cheaply take it to a tech to replace. King student model parts are cheap. You'll probably come in less than $100 or perhaps slightly around that area.

You're probably better off getting the bent inner replaced. It'll be cheaper than a new slide, and a used slide will probably need some work.
