    Ordered new drop targets. Didn't think to order new springs, but its probably a good idea to get new ones. Hate to pay shipping for nine teensy springs. Is this something I can pick up at Lowes or Home Depot?

    Could use some help picking out the right spring. This is for a 1980 Bally solid state- Mystic. The drop targets in this machine are housed in a rigid box, if that helps.

    Thanks!

    I think it likely that this is the spring you want...

    But you may want to measure to be certain...

    I was hoping to get it all done by this weekend, for company coming by.

    Order from pinball Resource as he’ll charge exact postage and Marcos charges a minimum s&h fee of $8.95

    Nope. Most of the springs in pins are specific to pins.

    Unless the springs are obviously stretched out, you could reuse the old ones if only just temporarily, and then maybe replace them later. A pick & hook set would make that job easier, if you don't already have that.

    I happen to have a pick and hook set. I was given a harbor freight gift card for the holidays, and a pick and hook set was suggested as something a pinball owner should have. So, I’m set!
