At Texas Pinball Festival last month, Steve Ritchie was walking the floor while we were setting up on Friday afternoon before the show opened. He walked up and was looking closely at my Firepower. He said, "Wow, this one is in pretty good condition." What a moment! I'll remember it for as long as I can.
Anyway, I've moved my Firepower a few times and have never disconnected the wire harnesses between the head and the backbox. Here's how I do it, which is also how lots of people do it - lay a clean moving blanket (folded over about 4 times so it's thick) over the playfield glass and side rails, remove backglass (transport it separately and carefully), remove the bolts from inside the head box, carefully lay the head down on the blanket, secure it to the main body with a ratchet strap, and then also secure it with another ratchet strap snugly against the little "neck" that it is normally perched on. This is so that the head box cannot slide forward down the side rails (toward the coin door) while being transported. Of course then you remove the rear legs, gently stand it on end so the coin door is facing the sky, and remove the front legs last. Now it's ready for a 2-wheel dolly. Don't forget to remove everything from the interior first, like the coin box and anything else rattling around in there, and don't forget to remove the 3 pinballs.
Have fun with that Firepower!
