My up kicker bison side hits the bottom part of the wire rail above it causing it to kick out weak, anyone have a clue as to why? My upkickers both also fire out weak if there's 2 balls that kick out back to back(in multi ball for example) btw

Quoted from sosage:There is supposed to be a metal stop with a rubber pad above the hole, that the ball hits when coming out, causing the ball to travel horizontal. The ball should not come close to banging into the wire rail.
As for the back-to-back issue, are you talking about when there are two balls in the *same* hole? Having balls eject weak in that scenario is normal for every machine.
The metal stop is there but the ball kicks to the front of the hole instead if the back so it kicks too high forward and misses the stop entirely hitting the wire rail. I am also looking for a replacement rubber for the stop but having trouble finding it, anyone know where to find it? I was indeed talking about having two balls in the same hole and it kicking out weak, thanks for clarifying that this is normal

I have some at home I can bring by next time, if you can wait. Ordered the parts for TSPP from pinbits today, which should arrive soon as they're here in the bay area.
I don't think the foam will work because it feels like a hard rubber meant to bounce the ball out further rather than deaden the impact but we def try it
Quoted from viperrwk:As for the "metal stop", it's called a "ball snubber". The black rubber on it is actually hard polyurethane to get a better bounce out of the VUK. Details and P/Ns are in this thread:
http://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/need-help-locating-gottlieb-partThis may be because someone might have put the wrong snubber back in place when they shopped the game. There are a few different lengths used on SF2 and someone might have mixed them up. Hard to believe the VUK misses the snubber entirely with the correct one installed.

Thank you very much the post was very helpful, thinking maybe my snubbers are switched, as for the rubber i found the part number (28504) but I can't find the part, talked to Steve young but he didn't have it. I'll just try my luck a few places and see what happens
Found the part I needed as part of a lot of items in this auction ebay.com link: Gottlieb Premier Street Fighter Pinball Machine Pf Metals Wire Actuator Lot
Only need the snubbers, anyone need any of the other parts?
