Just bought a jackbot. Im loving it so far. But have heard some time in production they changed the saucer brackets so the ball doesnt pop out half the time when you make the shot. I have the 45 degree angle ones.Has anyone made the switch? Do they work that much better? If so where can I buy or whats the part #. (My game didnt come with manual)

The proto games had saucers like original pinbot and the balls bounced out of them all the time. Production games had the deeper holes with those angled brackets. If you are having too many bounce outs try bending the brackets slightly and see if the balls bounce out less.

Production games also have a cut across the back of the hole so the bracket goes beneath the playfield. There's more involved than just putting in a new assembly. I had a sample game and was debating on making this change but never did.
