Question Warped yoke A-clamp self repair?

[JimmyTG6]

Hi all,

I have an apeks xtx yoke 1st stage that was recently damaged after getting struck by another cylinder on a boat while attached to my own cylinder. The A-clamp frame is now warped, which prevents proper pressurisation and so is unusable. The 1st stage itself is fine, but has anyone ever encountered a similar issue? Can a warped yoke clamp be fixed DIY, or would it be best to buy a conversion kit and just stick a new yoke or din on there? Cheers.

Sorry all, you may have to explain in layman's terms... The 1st stage I was using was the xtx200, and I've been drawing information from the tx40-50 service manual, so the parts are listed as AP1403 (yoke clamp) and AP1407 (yoke clamp connector) which were both mentioned above. I'm fairly certain the connector is not damaged, but may end up purchasing both parts for good measure. If those selling the appropriate parts are located in Australia, I'll most likely send some PM's at around mid July, as I'm currently working remote in the Seychelles, but am based in Sydney.

One last time, DM me if you want assistance.

Your part numbers are no longer valid.

I gave you correct part number in an earlier post.
