Hi man, I wonder if you can help me. I am doing a Hurricane restore, found a battered one in a barn.

The sling shots..Its really busting my head..

In your picture above (the blue side (right) my plastic has a hole om the right for sa post to go through, but in your image above (and I think in my reference pics, it has a blue post with screw head. Seems weird, as I would think the plastic wants to slot onto something.

Is here any chance you could send me a close up of your sling shots, left and right, so i can get mine sorted please? The manual shows a star post front left most, but yours has a red post (mine did too!) but that seems to push the left plastic up in the air..

Really appreciate the help !

Brilliant, thank you for posting that jaytrem , lovely looking plastics! You have the holes in the plastic but no post under there? This was exactly what I was looking for. I have a post in those two spots, but they were huge and pushing the plastic up and out of shape. So I have used some smaller posts to support the plastic and screwed. There were holes in the playfield below.

Could I trouble you for another close up photo please? The two ball gates for the Juggler. Mine are a little mangled, wood screws used to hold in place, I have new wires, and will replace for correct post, but wondered what others look like.

Thx in advance for your help! Threads hereif you want to see what I am up to! https://www.pinballinfo.com/community/threads/williams-hurricane.47699/

Seems to be a common theme for this game, no one likes it! heh! Poor Hurricane..

Superb, thanks for taking the time to take these images. Your machine looks great!

Thx for Pinball.center mention, I bought sling and dummy plastics from them. Waiting on Dummy to arrive. I couldn't understand why the dummy plastic had no support at the front, and it wasn't until I noticed on other pictures, that there were two tabs at the front missing on mine. It looks like you updated yours?

I have no pop bumper lights I must have a slightly later version. I think 8000 were made, and there is a sticker inside saying 2000. I believe later ones didn't have the lamps installed.

Your lighting looks great, my GI is a little too dim I thin. I went frosted and colour matched for plastic, but I think it needs to be non-frosted and intense (either white or colour) as I am finding it tough to see the ball if lights are out in the room! The Ferris Wheel ought to have its own spot light I think.

Thanks again for the pictures, really really appreciate it.

This is my next job too, mine is missing.
