Bought a broken XL...help needed on finding parts

Hey guys! So I acquired a broken but never used Prusa XL, with 5 tool heads. Looks like someone dropped it before it was ever initially switched on.

The top core-xy gantry got pretty annihilated. The rear motor mounts, and the front pulley points are all obliterated, and the whole gantry is hanging on by a thread.

I can easily print the plastic parts with another machine, but the right rear pulleys and the pins they mount on are completely gone.

I found a source for the pulleys, but I can't find anywhere (including the Prusa site) that sells or even lists the specs for the two pulley pins (axles really) in the right rear motor/pulley assembly.

Can anyone tell me what the lengths of those pins are supposed to be? There should be (presumably) one short one that hold one pulley, and one longer one that holds two pulleys......again, presumably with rubber o-rings between and on the outside of each pulley?

Thanks in advance!!

Get in touch with Prusa Support via chat. You will need the serial number from the back of the machine - although you are not already a customer they will give you some basic assistance which will include, as you are about to buy some from them, spare parts and specifications.

Cheerio,
