Aristo-Craft Power Blocks
Posted by bigswede073 on Thursday, February 5, 2009 4:56 AM

 I'm looking at bashing up a 1:24 standard gauge critter and flat/gondola to accept transfer goods from my 1:24 42 inch gauge pike to show the contrast - SO -

Does anyone know the diameter and thread pitch for the screws that hold the wheels on the Aristo-Craft power block (ART 29351)?  Are the same screws used in the shorter power block (can't find model #)?  I need to find some longer screws so I can put a spacer on each axle, widening the gauge to 56.5 inches.

THNX,
don
