I am looking for the parts to permanently swap my Apeks XTX100 Din to a yoke. I know there are adapters that allow you to use it on a yoke, I have been doing that. What I want to do is change it. I know people normally go the other way. Is there anyone who might want to sell there old parts?
 
Or you could sell me your DIN first stage for a reasonable price and buy a new one in yoke ;-)
 
Wasn't entirely serious, although if you're interested drop me a line. More found it curious that you want to go DIN->yoke, when every seems to want to go yoke->DIN. Have you tried just using an external converter so you still have the flexibility of diving DIN when you need it?
 
I dive yoke mostly, The adapter is cumbersome, and the worst reason, the reg is satin and the adapter is polished.

Stop! Just buy the the yoke kit online. Assuming that your 1st stage is FST, you'll need the yoke, ball stopper and the screw top.

First secure the reg with a clamp add some newspaper or firm support to prevent scratching then remove the din valve with a 6mm allen key.

Place the yoke onto the 1st stage, insert the filter/valve assembly, tighten the nut with either a size 18 or 19mm wrench, attach the ball stopper and cap it with the screw top.

Keep the din valve when you go places which only have din valves or when you want to do tech.

Thank you for your help. I think I already know the parts I need (unless you have the part number as a kit). I really need a source to get the parts.
 
Check out this diagram and save it cus it contains a lot of useful info.

The parts list for the FST Yoke conversion is on page 19.

12 AP1409 ‘O’ Ring
19 AP1403/S Yoke Clamp
20 AP1407/S Yoke Clamp Connector
21 AP1406 Disc Filter
22 AP1404 Protective Cap
23 AP1166 ‘O’ Ring
24 AP1400 Yoke Clamp Screw
25 AP5015 Decal

I'll need to check with the guy who services my regs if the codes are the updated part no. and the prices as well.
