Hello,

I just bought a new Stern lock down bar and receiver from Pinball Life... And for the life of me, I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.

The lock bar does not seem to fit. The receiver has 4 slots on the top, two inner and two outer. My lock bar's tabs mostly line up with the outer holes, but will only actually go into them if I slide the notch of one tab in first. Then the next problem is the actual lock that should engage the slots in the tabs, only seems to go across the inner slots on the receiver.

Here is a couple pics to give you an idea of what I am talking about...

The lock bar's tabs don't even actually seem to fit the receiver. This is however the receiver Terry told me to get for this Lock bar.

Maybe I should email him.

Well... dern it. It looks like you are right! Let me shoot him an email.

Thank you both very much! And please ignore my messy garage floor... I am eyeball deep into a very messy project

I wish my garage floor wasn't lifting 1 week after I had it installed, which was still 2 weeks before it was supposed to be polished and waxed.. our entire house and garage flooded.

So now I have to wait for another 4 months, and they are going to come replace the curled tiles.. then sand, polish and wax it.

I shot Terry an email. I have no doubts he will fix it. Especially considering he charged me for the Stern Receiver, which is half the price of this one!!
