Hi All,

One of the ball ended L arms in my Rok Lok tom holder has developed the most minute bit of play, but the effect is that it robs the tom mounted on it of tone.
I've tried to use a Tama ball ended arm that I picked up from a second hand shop for £3, but the Tama ball size is bigger than the Premier ball so as a result it won't fit.
Which is all a long winded way of asking if anyone has got a Premier arm they are willing to part with, or can point me in the direction of one. There is one on e Bay that looks like it came from the other type of Premier holder they did, but it's in the States & will cost me about £50 so I'm leaving that.
Please help me

Cheerio,
Mark W.

Hello Mark, I believe I have exactly what you're after. Let me check my spares bucket and drop me a message through the forum mail icon.

Thanks Flurbs, very kind of you & very quick. It'll be great if one is lurking in your spares bucket.
You have mail.

Cheers,
Mark W.

I think there might actually be two lurking! I had a RockLock casting implode on me a couple of years ago, I'm convinced I kept all the non-imploded bits... Just got your email, will get back to you as soon as I've had a look.

Hi All,

Thanks to Flurbs my RokLok Tom holder should soon be up and running again & my right hand Tom will go boom instead of bim.
Thank you Flurbs.
Cheers

If it ever happens again then Gibraltar do L arms that fit straight into a Roklok.

Hi Flurbs,

Would you happen to have the nylon bush, pressure plate and wingscrew in your spares bucket
for the RokLok tom holder?

Mid life crisis kicked in, drum kit bought. It's not quite like cycling though, you forget. A lot!
