I have a question for you guys about the GTB Haunted House upkicker tube and it's alignment. Mine has a problem where it is loose(ish) going from back to front, so basically over time the tube migrates back (from a shot into the tube, or whatever) and gets thrown off. I occasionally have to pull the playfield up and move the tube back towards me to realign it.

I don't know if mine has some missing mounting parts, or if the tube brackets are worn out, etc. I just know it's annoying and probably not correct for the tube to have so much play and get misaligned over time.

That tube is suspended from the upper playfield by the same bracket used to mount stand up capacitors the the base of a cab (like the big orange one in HH). Take a look at yours and make sure all the tabs are still on it and one has not snapped off. It should not move.

Thank Ken, I knew I had seen that somewhere. )

Yeah, I thought I had seen that before, but I don't think that mine is broken. It's held by 2 screw opposite of each other, and then has the smaller tabs. Mine has one spring attached to it that goes to the playfield.
