Hey Anthony, Just throwing my 5 cents worth in but when I got my 1200 LOM I went direct to Legacy and spoke to Cindy. It took a few weeks but was able to get all the gearing, indexing plates, split nuts, misc. track nuts and the spray for slides "Easy Glide" I think its called. I had to spend the money but so worth it to have the complete package. other items you just have to wait for people to sell parts. Hope that helps. I'm sure others answered last night at some crazy late hours lol. Kind Regards,
