tinyfish Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 Would someone be so kind and measure the shaft from the rotisserie motor to drive shaft on the KK. I am trying to cut my own to length. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisLinkletter Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 Problem is every motor has a different depth of drive socket, even the same brand and model. This has been driving us crazy for years. For a while one grill.com was cutting custom shafts for customers.. You will need to measure the depth of your socket. The length will be the distance between the motor and the grill plus the spring compressed into the motor socket will just clear the grill. We have another batch of adjustable ones coming from the machine shop. Last batch they messed up and some of them were right hand threads instead of left and just unscrewed! Argh.. good news is that a bit of loc-tight or epoxy fixed them up but still.. These adjustable ones solve the socket depth issues. We will airmail a box to the warehouse and a few directly to customers who don't mind the airmail expense. They will be up in spares on the new forum.. All the spares segregated by grill size will be up this week too.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a shaft does not come with the cradle can I improvise something for the time being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
