I have a Bally Sea Ray

The bonus unit has a post that has completely sheared off (holds the coil plunger)

This could apply to other machines as well.

Has anybody gone through this, any repair kit available?

I may have to fabricate something!

See pic, plunger is missing.

You need to find a similar part, perhaps here or on e-bay, or some other outlet, correct the problem and make it work again.

Pbr sells flipper rebuild kits, plus he sells individual parts. Follow this link and look for the detailed breakdown chart. Hopefully the needed part is there.

Ours had done the same thing - no lube on the post for years. We replaced it with a donor from "Circus", after making copious notes on which spring goes where and so forth.

Take photos, make notes, and good luck!

Got the lever arm yesterday, installed it, waiting for a coil to arrive, should be good to go!
Planetary Pinball has manuals online.
This is the one for Sea Ray.
