    I have a Jalopy and yes impulse flippers are not ideal. I with the help of Ken Layton retrofitted with normal flippers. All can be put back if the next owner (O-din? ) wants. I made a how to thread but can't link from my I Pad but easy to search for here on Pinside.

    Quoted from Otaku:

    Here you go, and it seems Ken Layton linked to his own thread in that thread too but I'll leave that there:

    Thank you Otaku.

    Jeff,
    They are not fixable as no one makes the rings no more. Changed the carbon ring bumpers for gottlieb parts too in the same link as I think you saw.

    I agree O-din keep the original parts with the game. I guess you don't want a Jalopy.
