I recently purchased a super nice Rocky and Bullwinkle and pulled the plastics to Novus them up and when I went to reassemble I first started with the back of the left ramp unsupported because I couldnt find any place that a support would be installed and I didnt remember for sure how/if it was. After playing some with the back of the ramp unsupported I didnt like the way the ramp would dip down in the back with the weight of the ball going by. So I started looking closer and the only thing I could fathom was it is supposed to sit on the bar across the back of the yellow wireform. However, now it takes a perfect shot to make it over the ramp and then just barely. So I took a picture of it and I'm seeking advice from anyone who has or knows the game in this.

Thank you for any help.

I like the idea of the long hex support off the back flasher even though on the bottom side it would just sit on top of the plastic. I might try that. Certainly on top of the yellow bar makes that shot very difficult. Thanks for the great pic and descriptions.

I looked at many of the previously sold machines and this one in particular was touted as NIB. It's clearly below the yellow wire.

My flippers are plenty strong but as P2K has on his machine you have to address the ramp at the bumper as well as in the back. If you don't lift the ramp a little at the bumper the ball can get stuck under it at times. The top ramp is pushing down pretty hard on the left ramp so it does need support.

It would be nice if there was a definitive answer as to that ramps "factory" support.

Thanks

Interesting! What I cant tell for sure is whether the ramp is sitting on the yellow bar or is it slightly above it? If it is above the bar but not touching it what is supporting it?

Thanks
