EQ6/HEQ5 counterweight extension shaft

I am after a counterweight extension shaft for my HEQ5 and after doing some research the EQ6 shaft should fit, I have only found suppliers in Europe that sell this item, I thought it a little ridiculous paying $80 after shipping for a metal bar.

Please PM me if you can help me out.

Thank you!


Christian.

Give the Australian Skywatcher distributor, Tasco, a call/email. They should have it. I've used them to replace broken bits on my Heq5, so I'm sure they'd be able to help you out.
Cheers,
Chris

Hey Chris, I emailed tasco on the 17th December regarding some other parts for my HEQ5 but I still have not heard back from them, guess I'll give them a call, thanks for your suggestion!

Suggest a PM to Trevor is in order. Can't remember price for my HEQ5Pro, but was very reasonable and does the job perfectly.

Hey Rob,

Just sent Trevor a PM, thank you for linking me to that thread, I would never have found it myself!

Cheers
