DW 6264.

Hi guys, 

 

The crown and tube on my DW daytona is broken, It is one of those cases when DW's tube was accepting the gen crown but with some friction and difficulties and now it is derailed and does not close anymore. 

 

Could you tell me what is the correct crown + tube size I should order and where ?  Will an old DJ36 crown tube fit?  

 

Also, do you know how to make these pushers not to stick out so much, will they be shorter if I replace DW pushers with Ofrei pushers? what is the solution here? 

 

Thank you!

Your crown is a 6mm crown and you need a 6mm tube- either the older 24-6000 tube or maybe the newer 24-6030 tube- you might want to check out those two. You should probably re-tap the hole with the 3.0mm x .35 tap- but you need to remove the old tube first and make sure it's a 3mm hole- if it's a 2.5mm hole you'll need to change horses and use the 2.5mm x .25 tap and the correct 6mm tube for that. You can pick up aftermarket tubes from Ofrei.com.

I would leave the pushers alone- DW used a bastard size for his pushers- 2.5mm x .20 whereas Rolex and Ofrei pushers are 2.5mm x .25. A change out like this is not for the feint hearted!
