I ordered a flipper rebuild kit & a button for my Sky Jump. I noticed the inner shaft was larger than the original one & will not fit. Am I supposed to drill out the other piece or did Pinball Resource send the wrong button? Thanks

Yes, they also sell a matching back plate, but you can drill yours out. You will have to center it though......!

Personally I would just buy the Back Plate for it too thus making it an easy operation. If you drill it out yourself and are not centered then your buttons might just bind and get stuck when pushed in.

I had a similar situation with my CC Casino as the metal buttons PBR sells are slightly thicker and longer as they were meant to go on early Gottliebs but are similar enough as CC ones are not available anymore.

Just drill it out. There's already a hole there to centre the drill. I did a pair last week, piece of cake.
