I bought two DEC RX02 dual 8" floppy drives, but they turned out to be 50Hz
model, so I need new belts and motor pulleys.  The person from whom I bought
the drives has an additional broken drive, from which he is sending me two
belts and two pulleys, so I still need two more of each.

I hope someone out there has another broken RX02 (or an RX01 with non-Calcomp
drives), from which they will sell me the belts and pulleys.

Actually I can buy the belts form DEC for $6, which is reasonable, but they
want $39 each for the pulleys :-(

Also, I'd like to buy or borrow the spacer guage needed to position the
drive motor correctly.  I don't want to pay $61 to DEC for it.  I'm not even
sure DEC has it.  They claim it is replaced with the same part number with
a -03 suffix, which is the 50 Hz spacer guage :-(

The part numbers are:

74-21078-00  60 Hz flanged AC motor pulley
12-14005-00  60 Hz drive belt
93-06353-02  60 Hz spacer guage.

Thanks!
Eric
