    Quoted from Drano:

    Hmmm. Seems a bit big.
    Are any of those other ones closer to 2.5" to 3" at rest? If that large one is over 4", one of the others may be just right. I just need one for that top bumper. You can see the one that's there was broken, repaired and is now quite stretched out.
    As for the kicker. All I can do is snap some pics of the empty area and the screw holes that were left... but I imagine that the mechanism is not very different from what may have been used in games like FLEET, CANON FIRE and many others of that era with a kicking mechanism. The trick is finding a picture or schematic of those kickers!

    Quoted from msj2222:

    Anyone know who sells/makes the parts to convert them from battery power?

    The conversion should be quite easy. Use Suzo/Happ power supply 42PP0608.

    Quoted from msj2222:

    Thanks, it appears my pin needs 6V and that doesn't seem to be a selection on that power supply! It originally took 3 of those beer can looking batteries.

    5 volts should work fine.
