So my No Fear bottom flippers behave kind of weirdly. In most of my games if a ball comes down and hits a dead flipper it bounces up a bit. In No Fear the flippers act more like a shock absorber.

The mechs are tight and the bats are new. Could this be caused by a worn plastic bearing? Any other things that would cause this? Maybe this is just a No Fear thing? In general just trying to make my No Fear feel more "solid".

Yeah ok, awesome thanks!

That is what I get for being lazy. I did rebuild them but didn't bother with the bushings because they looked ok. Blergh.

So last night I replaced the bushings on both flippers, but the right flipper is still a bit of a shock absorber. I had Kris from firebird look at it too, we can't figure it out... everything has been replaced. I am so frustrated by this... Maybe my new flipper bat is defective or something...
