Replacing the flipper bushings as part of a rebuild. The three screws that hold the bushing in are TIGHT. Broke one... how normal is this?

T2 machine with a lot of miles on it.

Hi! Thanks for the great thread.

Help me out to understand the flipper wiring on my F14. The lower flippers have a dual switch. The upper flippers have the single EOS switch. The lower EOS switch is 'coupled' with a switch that closes at the end of the stroke. I want to upgrade to the WPC style flippers, but not sure what to do with this double switch as the rebuild kits only come with the 'one-way' EOS switch.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

What are the black "bent" washers in this pic? These were also included in my system 11 rebuild, but on an F14 they weren't installed, so I think they were extra?

(I know this is a Bally kit, I stole your pic)

Reason number 169 to follow this guide and change the linear flippers back to the "old" style...

Linear flipper rebuild kit - 62$, vs 25$.

Boom!

Any problem with using a Williams bat in the place of a Gottleib (sys 3 with the heavy metal "shoe")??

The replacement Gottleibs are expensive and the Williams bats seem to be the exact same size of shaft.

Thanks!
