Unsure if this pin would fit in my basement with the topper in full motion. Does anyone have a measurement of the height with the topper at top dead center? Thanks!

Quoted from Colsond3:

You’ll need 86 inches of clearance with topper. Backbox sits a smidge shorter than a Stern.

Thanks for the measurement! I'm barely 2" short to make this damn thing fit...my luck.

Anyone notice an issue with the powder coat? Got some blotchy patterns going on here.

Quoted from Pinash:

I'm in the 300's and my coating is rubbing off and has a few weird streaks/scratches.

Strange, anything Spooking doing about this? It's not the end of the world, just a bit strange considering the price for these.

Quoted from RussMyers:

OK, for anyone who has had the issue where a ball hit has damaged the RBG LED strip on the edge of the middle playfield, here is my attempt at a ball shield.
I just made it so testing begins today.
.093 Lexan
8" x 1/2"
Heat bent
Preheated my toaster oven to 325F, laid the lexan strip on a sheet of aluminum foil on a tray, and waited 2-3 minutes until it started to sag.
The first time I tried, waited too long and the lexan bubbled on me (ruined)
I had on leather gloves and bent the soft hot lexan over the corner of my wooden cutting board; not a perfect match to the curve, but close enough.
I was worried my heat gun would heat it too much too fast.
Since I was replacing the broken led strip anyway, I used the zip ties to hold the shield in place.

Is that foam at the hole backplate factory or aftermarket?

Quoted from Chetrico:

A friend set up his NIB machine last night and is having balls get stuck on the upper playfield. There is not enough room for the ball to pass through the area pictured. Any ideas on how to fix this?
[quoted image]

I had the same exact issue. I took it out and used my trusty harbor freight heat gun to warm up the skinny spot and carefully give it some flex and then reinstall into the game. You may have to hold the plastic in place tightly so the screw doesn't wedge that gap closed. Haven't had an issue since.

Quoted from mpdpvdpin:

bend. the hood. down. takes 2 secs.

I may give this a go as I'd guess 95% of my left flipper shots get rejected. The problem is that by bending I'm guessing it will eventually bend back up and out of position.

Look at all the treats I found at the bottom of my cab after Halloween!
I was able to rebuild my right kicker as you can see the spring and pin went for a ride. Couldn't find any place to install the three screws.

Quoted from waletboy:

Just drilled the 2 port holes for the sub and wow what a difference with the playfield glass not rattling. Just had my best game to date! Love this game! While playing definitely had code issues with modes being stacked but I know once we get some updated code hopefully it will bring this game to the top!
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

I've been thinking of drilling holes too, what size did you go with?

Anyone got other tricks to eliminate the glass rattling? I drilled two 1 1/2" holes near the sub and it helped but still didn't eliminate the issue. I may try lining the edges of the glass with electrical tape.

#16566 3 months ago
Quoted from Lostcause:

I fitted a spacer on the sub as the surround pushes against the cab/grill. Helped with rattles and sounded much better too.
Also cut off bits of cable ties and jammed them under the black glass trim which worked better than adding the foam strip to the glass.
I can’t wait to connect up my Servo 15 sub, Sanitarium is going drop big on that sub and then everything is gonna shake

I cut up a zip tie in about 1.5" lengths and shoved them under the plastic blackglass trim and that pretty much eliminated the glass rattle so thanks big time for that! I already ordered the sub spacer and still plan to install it since that should produce better sound with the speaker having full excursion.
