Quoted from Pinballmike217:Nice solution with the coil sleeves and shrink wrap. Did you try shrink wrap directly around the post without the coil sleeve? Maybe that way there would be room for two or three layers of shrink wrap which might add a little bounce to replace the removed rubber ring?
I heat slinked around the coil sleeve, but I am sure you can do a few layers. I thought about heat shrinking around the in lane but with the coil sleeve it gives it maximum protection. As far as the diverter v groove there are two issues with it. One, the v groove is not milled properly and does not have a smooth transition and two, the diverter arm can also be milled incorrectly. With these two issues it is no wonder that some people have good left orbits and others do not. There just isn't enough margin for error when these are fabricated. I am sure Stern spend many man hours perfecting these two items, but there just was no account for margins of error from their supplier who fabricates these two items. I created two solutions to help those of us without perfectly milled components.
Slim Coil sleeves: These allow for more wiggle room past the posts for left orbit shots
Shield bracket: This allows a left orbit shot to have a smooth transition between diverter arm and v groove
After I test these out extensively I will start making them for people in need of them. Hopefully Stern will send out fixes for this at no charge. I do however see GOT LE/PREM owners having issues in future if they do not now after their machines are broken in.
