Does anyone have any information on how to properly replace the front rails on a Crown Graflex 4x5. I bought replacement rails for my camera since the rails currently on the camera were broken when I bought it. I don't want to damage the camera in any way while trying to replace the rails. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I think Equinox Photographic in Oregon as NOS rails available.

Go to member RichS web site http://www.southbristolviews.com/ click on Graflex Manuals in the left plane then download the pdf file Pacemaker Service Manual. Bed disassembly begins on manual page 17. It is not necessary or desireable to remove the bed from the body, skip those steps. Paragraph A 2 a thru c to remove the broken yoke, paragraph C 5 all steps to reassemble and adjust.
