Description: Up for sale here is this rebuild kit for a Heathkit SG-8. At this point the original Heathkit SG-8s are at least 50-60 years old, and the old parts are weak and failing, with leaky capacitors and crumbling cords. We will make them new again! This kit includes a new replacement AC power cord and replacement yellow film and Supertech electrolytic capacitors, plus two X1Y2 safety disc caps. It also includes an instruction sheet to explain how to install everything. This does not include any tubes or resistors. You will get the exact parts shown in the picture. These are all high-quality brand new genuine parts--these are the same parts I use when I rebuild test gear. The parts included are very close modern equivalents to the original parts--in this case the 20 uf 150v sections of the can caps are replaced with 22 uf 450v caps, the .1 uf cap is replaced with .1, the .02 uf cap is replaced with a .02 uf, and the two .02 uf "death caps" are replaced with much safer modern .01 uf X1Y2 safety disc caps. I will include a surprisingly well-written instruction sheet, but rebuilding tube gear is somewhat complicated, and you should know what you're doing and have a decent soldering iron. This kit will not fix everything that could be wrong with your equipment, but it will certainly help. Please see my pictures for details. US shipping and handling is $5, and international is $18, no matter what quantity you buy. All my small parts are set up for combined shipping, so just use the "add to cart" feature and then check out all at once, and it will combine shipping. If you have any questions, please ask. Looking for more parts? I have power switches, feet, pushbuttons, top case screws, bottom screws, faceplate screws, white LED fuse lamps, blue LED fuse lamps, 6.3v bi-pin bulbs, 8v bi-pin bulbs, 12v bi-pin bulbs, wired 8v 60ma bulbs, new power cords, new main capacitors for the Marantz 1060/2230, wired Pioneer speaker plug replacements, new 630v yellow film capacitors at 30 different values, a large variety of transistors for vintage stereo repair, new 250v yellow film crossover capacitors, and more. Just use "add to cart" on everything you want and then check out for combined shipping.
