If you haven't rebuilt them, rebuild them. Always do both sides. With DE->Stern, other than some Sega's that had b/w style pawls, you can keep the pawls (bit pricey) and just order the stoppers, link/plunger, bushings, retracting springs and sleeves.

As always, I only recommend buying rebuilds from PBR, steel quality is the best.

Always rebuild, always. Think about it, a machine that costs 2k, 3k, 5k, 7k... if not new, and the fact that the flippers are the single most important thing to control the play, and for an hour a side and $30 per pair, it's a no brainer to rebuild.
