    Just got my new premium and want to install my shaker. I had ordered a shaker from PBL about a week ago and and was looking for a thread on installation.

    After doing so I see there was a big problem with them blowing node boards. So now Im second guessing installing it even if it does not have the capacitor. So I check again and now they are not even available on the web site ( REALLY WEIRDS ME OUT )

    Am I paranoid or are the safe to install

    This was happening when they first came out. They have since corrected the problem.

    I have PBL shakers in my GOT, WWE, GB and Kiss with No issues.

    Much appreciated. Are they more like the Sterns. The red tremors have too much rattle without the pmc

    I would say very similar. I have a few LEs that some with shakers direct from stern. I can't tell a difference.

    I just installed one in my GB. Very easy install. The holes are already in the right hand side of the cabinet by the coin box. Bolt it down and run the harness over to the node board and plug it in. The shake is not excessive. Makes the game so much more enjoyable.

    I also have a PBL shaker in my GB Premium and it has worked flawlessly. I waited a few days after I got the game to install it and what a difference! It's the best $100 mod out there.

    I have one in my WWE Pro. Easy to install and works great. They are back on the site now.

    Forget to respond back on this

    Installed and it's perfect. I love that it's no too high speed to cause rattle. More shake less vibration is a great thing
