Vid, what are your thoughts on Early SS Bally flippers like used on Centaur & Fathom? Rebuild, replace with something else? I'm leaning towards replace right now for my Centaur II, just not sure how they'd fit.

Quoted from vid1900:Are they still the Linear flippers (the ones with the single long rod with the notch machined into it), or has an OP switched them over sometime in the past?
They are the notched ones unfortunately. It seems like Bally was onto something with that design, faster to replace/clean & the spring mounted on the side instead of on the coil. I'm just not looking to spend $70+ for a rebuild kit if something better is out there.
