So I have a really low basement ceiling. My TNA which is smaller than most pins siren is almost hitting the ceiling. Of course I have the pinball bug now and want to get more machines in the future. Can anyone reccomend me a leg solution if I buy any larger 90's Williams games or modern sterns?
Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Or get a taller ceiling. Think long term. Even with shorter legs. Can you lift a playfield up high enough to work on it with your ceiling ?
LTG : )
Williams made 25 inch legs for the front of some of their games in the mid 60s. Find 4 of those and you're good to go! If you don't mind playing on your knees.
I had the same problem with my Hercules in a drop ceiling area of my basement. I took the four legs to a machine shop where they cut off the end and welded a square block of metal that's 1/4' thick and drilled and taped for the leg levelers. Worked out great.

Quoted from jeffc:How tall is your ceiling?
About 77 inches
I don't know about modern Sterns, but here are the heights of my games with proper legs and with rear levelers pretty high. I think you will be fine as long as you don't do toppers.
70.5" 1990s WMS NGG, WCS, AFM
70.3" 1971 BLY 4MBC
69.5" 1976 GTB Sure Shot
71.5" 1976 GTB Surf Champ

Pinball Resource sells 27" legs which are 1.5" shorter than most legs (28.5").
Just take 'em off.
