I just did a flipper rebuild on a Dr Dude with a kit from pinball life. This is the first rebuild that has given me issues. I can't get the left flipper bat to stay tight. It wants to drift out of position with every snap of the coil. I can't possibly get the clasp bolt any tighter.
Does anyone have tricks to fix this issue? Or am I better off just getting a new clasp? Has anyone had bad clasps?
The right flipper went in perfectly.
Quoted from CrazyLevi:. It's a $4 par
Where can you find them separately? I really don't want the whole kit.
Quoted from rogerdodger:It turned out that the flipper bat was loose
They are brand new bats. I did suspect that too, the glue is holding well.
Quoted from CrazyLevi:Flipper pawl (not clasp).
That's the word!!! Couldn't think of the correct term. Thanks!
