There is no way I'm the only person with this problem...

The pin crank on the lift ramp on my WW is missing. Williams part#02-4429. (http://marcospec.com/control/keywordsearch?SEARCH_STRING=02-4429 it's out of stock and I assume isn't coming back)

This part is used in most Williams games with a lift ramp. Diner, and WW are off the top of my head (but at pin a go go I wandered around and saw just how many different games use that part)

Marco only has this part http://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/02-4268 (and other stores don't even have that much). I made it work by dremeling the threadded end as small as possible to work with a very thin nut/lockwasher I found. It worked until CPR released the repro plastic for WW. With a non damaged plastic by the lift ramp there is even less clearance.

Is there a place to find the correct pin crank? Or do people just use a bolt there instead?

I am planning on making 1 sometime soon for mine but may try using a bolt first.

Yea I'm going to put a bolt there just to get the game back up and running. It worked great with the modified one from marco, until I replaced that plastic that was broken. Now it's back to the drawing board.
