    Does anyone know of a place to get a left flipper board for Judge Dredd? I have tried contacting Great lakes multiple time over the last several months but have got no response.

    Could the game reasonably be converted to just using a leaf switch in place of the opto board to run the left flipper if I can not find a replacement?

    Thanks in advance.

    If it’s just the opto, those are available and fairly easy to replace. For a full replacement:

    Yes, you can use a leaf switch instead of the opto board. It will have to have 2 contacts for the upper and lower flipper. I've also seen normal opto boards used, but with a longer actuator Macguyvered on. Not pretty, but it works.

    I didn't like the great lakes optic board, actual it used magnets, every time that the kick out coil fired so did the flipper's.
    I used the standard optic board and extended it lower in cab.
