interesting clamp on that rod, wonder if those can be sourced separately

 

[Minelab Matt]

ARRRGHHHHH, I didn't realise that the Plugger shaft I bought does not some with the lower shaft - epic fail....does anyone know of a lower carbon shaft that will fit?

Cheers
Matt

They should sale the lower shaft as well. I bought a different brand but they sold the lower shafts too. I keep a lower rod on each coil

 

[nuggetdog]

My nox stock lower shaft fits my detect Ed carbon upper. I keep it attached to my 6 in coil for a quick change when needed. I would imagine any lower carbon shaft would fit your plugger, but find out before you purchase so no more surprises.
Good luck

Ebay, brand new £44 total.

To be honest, im gonna sell it and get the best.....Detect-ED red belly!!!

Good choice, love mine

That’s what I have and it works well. Mark the center line of the lower rod and the coupling so you can line them up and the coil is level

Steve is making me shaft kit for my foldable eqx 600. When converted will post up pics.

If you are considering a different carbon fiber shaft conceder Steve’s because his is the only one that I know of that has the counter weight available as an option. The counter weight really helps offset the weight of the coil.

He and Steve already conversed some time ago as I recall. Shipment a ross the pond to the UK is an expensive proposition. He can probably get a Detect-Ed from a local UK distrubutor and it, like Steve's appears to be well made. Don't know if he is going to be able to recoup what he spent on the used partial Plugger rod, though. GL

Sorry I forgot to look at his location.

Original carbon shaft STILL not arrived from /ebay¬!!!!!!!

Sooo....fook it, i'm ordering a detect-ed shaft from whoever in the UK sells them.

Any ideas?


cheers

Go to Detect-Ed.com and in their -where to buy- section, they list 2 dealers in the UK who sells them. Good luck!
