Quoted from nerdygrrl:

I still have the traffic jam up top to contend with

I'm betting I'm going to run into the same issue, so I will be interested in hearing how the new posts work.

I was trying to think of solutions and was wondering if one could take 1/8" off the end with a grinder or diamond bit chop saw. I know my one guide has a similar issue up by the 3rd flipper and will also need to be addressed.

Quoted from nerdygrrl:

To be fair, a good bit of these hiccups were a result of Williams inaccurate measurements.

Interestingly enough, I was looking thru my tear down pix and my guides appear to be a different length than yours. I haven't gotten back to working on mine lately, so I have not fitted them yet.

This was how mine originally looked,

Damn, then it looks like I will run into the same issue. But on a positive note, it looks like grinding them down did the trick and it still looks good.
