Hi Guys
Is a A68KJU96X (6D) tube compatible with a MS9-29T chassis?

It is. But you need the proper yoke for ms9 chassis. Even you could use an ms8 yoke and tweek the image to set them correctly.

Well as I understand you I can't easily change (plug and play style) my tube A68KJU96X (6E) with a A68KJU96X (6D)?

as I said before, it’s more a yoke compatibility than that reference number. A68KJU96X is the tube reference from that Toshiba model, with that specific size and curvature in the canyon. It’s not clear if that two letter reference (6E or 6D) is related to the yoke type mounted from factory. You can check it the arcade otaku wiki different models identified:

I think it would be compatible, but there are some 31khz yokes used along this tube... most clarifying thing is to know where that tube was mounted originally.

FYI this chassis from Toshiba PB-9430-1 has same thing of PB-7534 but in new revision.
Working in my Windy II, tube Toshiba A68KZN696X.
flyback is the same msuifus11
and thank you SnakeGrunger
yeah I know Snake IRL 
*EDIT*
i forgot, when I try capcom game in naomi with IO board Windy II, I put dip switch 4 ON and her we go ! Game boot, because game give error : not found io board capcom.

Feeling like I'm finally pretty much done with the Windy 2 now!
Couple of notes from recent work on it:
The ground wire had been cut from the back I/O panel to the PSU (who knows why), so that has been fixed. Worth checking on other cabinets from the group buy as my E2 also had ground cut. It wasn't causing any issues except for maybe a weird hum that's been fixed up since cleaning up the internals.
If using a MS2930-S chassis you may need to switch CN509 over from "narrow" to "wide" to get hsize to fill the screen fully. I still can't quite get the vertical large enough, but it doesn't bother me really with hsize fixed and geometry looking much better.
I had left the degauss switch cable disconnected before as I wasn't sure if the Windy 2 one was the right pinout (there are three pins and only two get connected), but after moving the cabinet in from the garage the screen was pretty out of whack with magnetization and needed it, so I just gave it a go.
The five pin connector is the degauss switch one and drops in on a 2930 chassis as-is. The two pin degauss connector though did have to be changed.
If anyone was unsure of the back I/O panel layout or the buttons on the PSU, this is what I've figured out so far:
Back panel (looking in from front of cabinet via PCB door):
Bottom vga - to monitor chassis
Middle vga - to game board
Top vga - ext video input (?) (unused in my setup)
Bottom rca - to psu (audio amp)
Middle rca - to game board
Top rca - external audio input (?) (unused in my setup)
Psu dials/buttons:
Top left - volume dial
Top - degauss
2nd - test mode
Third - ??
Fourth - ??
Third/fourth maybe RCA input selector? Not sure.
I saw someone else had asked about a 12V adjustment pot on the Windy 2 PSU. There does actually seem to be one per the manual:
Oh also, the dimensions for the Windy 2 wooden PCB holder board are 16 3/8 in by 21 3/8 in by 1/2 in.

@kuze nice. I'm still working on mine. I'm A going to put a 2931 from grantspain or wait for rancor to send me my 2933 I bought a tube to gut the chassis yoke and rings from.
@kuze can you take pictures of the ground wire you fixed and were it was connected on that filter thing.
The sanwa I have in the can charges the cab and shocks me pretty bad but if I unplug the power to it cab isnt charged anymore.
Have you recapped that psu yet if so can you tell me what cap to get for the filter cap the big one. Mine makes a hum.

i like it too but i would rather get the blue to make my windy2 complete. So if anyone has a blue windy2 marquee wants to trade for a windy1 marquee im game.

The windy 2 I/O, does anyone know what voltage it needs? I’m working on an adapter for the nvs4000 to work in the Windy 2. I’ve got most of the logistics and parts down, I am stumped on this.
@radiantsvgun I’m pretty sure it’s the same io that my cobra system uses. PWB4052708. The fighting Bujutsu Manual has a pinout for you. It’s sort of split between two pages but here’s the power in from the psu I believe:

Woah you rock! Also, nice score on fighting bujistu, I gave up on trying to find it. Looks like I need 5v and 12v.@radiantsvgun I’m pretty sure it’s the same io that my cobra system uses.

@radiantsvgun I edited the last post just to be sure, the pcb I have is PWB4052708

I’ll check mine to make sure, but on my pictures, that CN6 lines up. Oddly one of my konami I/Os work perfectly, the other does not and is missing tables in the test menu.
Shh... Just use a sega jvs io, nobody will notice...

@SnakeGrunger is working on some adapter boards, I already have a sega I/O waiting to be put in.
If you follow the A/C power connector on the back of the I/O panel, you'll see there is a three wire-connector for A/C power and ground that goes from the I/O panel to the PSU.
On mine the yellow/green wire was snipped. The ground line screws down to the metal plate that holds the A/C noise filter on the bottom. Here's a crappy pic from the top, but you can see where I'm talking about.
Not sure about the filter cap, but IIRC someone else posted a cap list before.
I scored an original manual for the Windy 2 recently and at the very back it has a very nice schematic that is missing from the PDF on Arcade Otaku. It's oversized and folds out but I will try and get it scanned and uploaded soon.
Anyhow, in the meantime I can confirm the pinout @ekorz provided is correct for PWB405270B:
If anyone needs anything specific that I can snap a pic of from the schematic, lmk and I'll be happy to help.
Edit: Here's a better pic with more covered:

did your manual come with cp and cables and psu?
