These lanes on the machine were giving me some pretty bad ball hop so I decided to get the enhanced version of cliffys outlanes.

I pulled the old lanes out and filed the bell posts off to transfer to the new.

Cleaned them up with some evaporated for a while

Put on replacement decals I made for the lanes and noticed that the holes drilled on the right lane are wider than the left.
I tried to get the tops of the old bells to expand with my punch but the holes are too wide so there is play and the lane doesn’t sit high enough
So now I still have the same ball hop.
I hate this hobby sometimes

So on the right out lane I teetered the left side of it as high as I could and teetered the right of it as low as I could and tightened the hell out of it.
Plays like butter for a game or 2 until the impact of the ball pushes the right out lane too low towards the right flipperimage (resized).jpg
