Summary of Contents for Spirit Halloween Spirit Ghost Trap Wheels Upgrade kit

  • Page 1 Ghostbusters movies. The photos are of a Spirit Halloween Ghost Trap that has the GhostLab42 Spirit Ghost Trap Cosmetic kit installed. After the cosmetic upgrade, the wheels just had to be upgraded…...
  • Page 2 Installation in the Spirit Halloween Pack Parts Identification: There are multiple parts included in this kit. Here are the parts laid out somewhat grouped by what area of the trap they are going to upgrade: Parts: 1) 3D printed main axel assembly (same as #2)
  • Page 3 Recommended tools and supplies: • 3/32” Allen wrench (Hex Wrenches) • 9/64” Drill bits • Rotary power tool (such as a Dremel) with sanding bits • Small flat file...
  • Page 4 Yes, this is a picture of a plain Spirit Halloween Ghost Trap – I forgot to get the picture of the trap with the cosmetic kit before I removed the original wheels.
  • Page 5 Prepare the base of the trap: Next use the Dremel to cut and grind the 4 clips off that were used to mount the original wheels by holding the thin metal axel. Once nearly flat, I used a small flat file to make sure the area where the wheels will be mounted were smooth and flat so the main axels (#1 and #2) can sit flat on those areas.
  • Page 7 Construct the wheel assembly (truck): Place the wheel alignment pieces #5 on a hard-flat surface with the larger flat side on the surface. Then press the wheels #4 onto the alignment pieces #5, being carful to keep the wheels parallel to the flat surface while pressing them onto the alignment pieces.
  • Page 8 Using the 3/32” Allen wrench, screw in the four wheel assemblies into the two main axils #1 and Tighten the screws. Try and keep the screw as straight as possible since this is a metal screw into plastic you do not want to strip the connection. After tightening, loosen the screw about ¼ of a turn to allow you to center the washer and then retighten.
  • Page 9 Look at the bottom of each truck: the alignment pieces #5 do extend past the bottom of the flat side of the main axels #1 and #2. This is to help with alignment to the trap and make sure the wheels will not bind: These extensions will straddle the main base that was prepared in the first part of the instructions.
  • Page 10 Next drill one corner with the 9/32” drill and use one of the short screws #3 to hold the truck in place. Take care when drilling. There are wires inside this are of the trap, so do not drill too deep! In this trap, I taped the wires out of the way when I installed the cosmetic kit.
  • Page 11 You are now finished, and the base of the trap should look like this: Congratulations and now go out and trap some ghosts in style!
