OP
Quoted from Pinbub:

I like to keep my games original but there are certain things that I can't live with.
I appreciate originality but I'm not putting up with those stupid metal post nuts on vintage gottlieb games. I think the metal nuts look better but I'm done with post retainers backing out when I try to remove the top nuts. Although they look like shit I'm going with rubber push on plastic retainers. Another tech I know insists on them as he claims the plastic will pop up or off instead of breaking plastics.
What can't YOU live with?

This works great on holding the post in place while removing the nut. PBR sells them.
