What goes here on this screw/metal sleeve to protect the ball? Is it just a plastic sleeve? I wish I could find it. Wasn't on there when I got it. I found a few parts in the cab but not thisn'. Anybody know the size so I can order one? It's the left drain...for F-14 tomcat of course

Hmmm that's weird I guess I need to fig out the size and order a couple and get rid of those washers. I thought it was odd to roll over washers.

My game has thin black rubber sleeves on both posts. There's no washer under the posts on my game but the steel sleeve (post) on your game looks to be the same size as what's on mine.

Does your ball barely clear when going down that left drain? Mine practically touches, maybe my screw is bent or that piece of metal is. I think I may try to widen it a little bit.

Thanks for the pics. yeah i think my screws are bent. anout the sleeves though. Do they help? Mine hits the end of the guide rail every time anyway because it sticks
Out further than the sleeve.

So u guys think its ok to run with it then eh? I was worried that it may scrat h up my new balls first thing.

Thanks everybody. I was just worried I guess since I broke this thing down and cleaned and waxed. The ole playfield already has some wear but I didn't wanna scratch the new balls and roll over the field first time out there. I guess it's a go then
I'm locked on! FIRE !!!!

Next question. Any of you guys have a link or know a guy who knows a guy that has f-14 mods ( an f-14 to stick on the rails or something)

Looks good man. I may go try and find me a hot wheels haha. I think I saw that other u were talking about to somewhere on here. How do u attach it? Just sitting there?

Wow guys lovin these mods. How are you attaching them again? Wire ties or something? Any other f-14 owners, jump in and show is your mods.
If like to get some sort of figure for my swords of fury too, but can't think of what to do/use.

Pretty nice method You got there. I was in target today and toys r us looking around. Haha.
