Quoted from MT45:Any ideas how to protect this expensive left ramp? I noticed (not my game in below image but my arrows added) that the metal protectors on the ramp both are “bent inward” from the banging they get from both the upper flipper and the playfield mounted gun.
My DH looks just like this and has the colored cliffy posts and they appear to be slightly narrower than the old black or yellow standby ...
Would a black or yellow rubber in these 2 posts help keep those metal protectors from popping back into the flat face of each side of the ramp? (And thus potentially save it from cracking over time).
Are there even “fatter” post rubbers that would help ? Even to the point that they make that ramp a little harder to hit.
Other solutions you all have thought about?
I don’t have pics readily available of my Dirty Harry, but on all of my games with ramps or lock shots that have posts like that I also replace with fat rubbers. See my T2 below as an example.
