Equalizer express DTE1000 18volt

Has anyone worked on one of these. I need a new main body housing, the plastic piece right behind the metal head, the mounts have finally broken. I know its just a dewalt reciprocating saw, and was wondering if anyone had a line on a good place to buy parts for it inexpensively. Thanks for any info anyone could provide. Have a great day.

Go on line and order the parts from Dewalt. It's a simple fix. You might need a second set of hands too keep the 2 brushes in place as you slide the parts together. Don't pull too hard on the wires attached to the brushes. Hth.

Is dte1000 good enough of a model number to get the right part number? Or do you possibly know the dewalt model number that will work to get the right part number for the housing. Thanks again.

Dewalt 18 volt recip should be enough info. They haven't changed the housing for a long time. If you're still not sure go to a hardware store and compare the Dewalt with your tool. I hope that helps. Sorry I don't have part numbers. We gave up on desalts a long time ago and started using extractors. Ive got a bone pile of Dewalt parts, but nothing usable.

are you sure it is the middle that is broken and not the handle? the handle nut retainers is what breaks most of the time. if it is indeed the upper case i have a new dewalt one that i will give you if you are in the phoenix area or you pay the shipping and i will send it. the reason i have this is the same possable misstake i made a few years ago.

I have been going to my local dewalt factory service store for over 10 years now any time I need parts or service on my equalizer express. They had never seen the express before I first stopped in. The parts are inexpensive and almost always in stock. My express tool is completely yellow now. The best part is no down time. Believe me, If I can fix this anyone can.

I'm not hatin on the Express. We own a few ourselves. But you guys should try the extractor series. Very ruff and rugged tool. We still have a few of the old 18 volt ones that has never been services ROCKIN strong. We currently are using the 28 volt and the corded version using plenty of water for lube and cuts like butter.....
