I recently picked up set 6990 at a yard sale, but it is missing the motor top, base and coupling. From the pictures and descriptions i can find on the coupling, it looks like the one for my set is shorter. Does anyone know if the coupling for the other 2 set will work with set 6990?

Sets 6991 and 6399Edvanderwolf 11:53, October 9, 2010 (UTC)
Okay, I'm a bit unsure: The coupling of 6990 Monorail Transport System is this piece, you mean that one, right? This coupling only appears in 6990 and in 5040 (an accessory set).
- The coupling of 6991 Monorail Transport Base and 6399 Airport Shuttle is this piece, which is different to that of 6990. I don't have those two sets but it seems as if they are different, as peeron describes them as "Part 2685" and "Part 2685a".
- All three sets use this piece as the base.
- All three sets use this piece as the motor top.
Hope that answered some questions. :) Samdo994 talk contribs 12:14, October 9, 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your help. I saw the same info. I also looked at the building instructions for set 6991 and the picture of the coupling looks a litter longer. I believe it might work, but i don't want to spend $40 and find out it doesn't.
If anyone has used these parts together please let me know the outcome.
thanks,
