Hi!

I'm rebuilding the small (top) flippers from a Gottlieb's Genie and I'm wondering if you guys know how can I remove (and install) the lever assembly from the old plunger assembly? Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Put the part in a vice, and knock out the roll pin with a roll pin punch.

You can get a roll pin punch set for around $10.

Something like these would probably work:

Small world @uncle_jose, I asked this same question on Facebook on Saturday. Got the same answer too. Hey, are your coil stops removable with a lock nut, or are they one piece with the bracket? Mine are one piece, but I've heard the original hardware was the kind where the stop was attached to the bracket with a lock nut. That sounds like a better design.

Actually my coil stops are not removable. I was able to fix it by using the roll pin tip mentioned above. All is good!

TIA!
