    My own hack. I was too lazy to completely replace the bottom of my cab that was busted. Could not run the shaker motor because it literally started to rip the particle board apart (serious water damage). Had to get the machine up and running for super bowl, so I simply put a piece of MDF under it and bolter the living cr@# out of it.
    Full replacement will follow though.

    Quoted from cosmokramer:here is the magnet board I pulled out of a LAH that I picked up a few days ago...for some reason the magnets stay on all the time...

    I have to agree that that one looks slightly different from stock

    Quoted from vec-tor:

    A lot of Last Action Heroes had their magnet assembly pulled
    from the game. It was badly programmed and never worked right.
    I think they fixed the algorithm on Guns & Roses.

    Works perfectly fine on mine.

    Quoted from Cheddar:

    I use an IWISS crimper. It does insulation and wire crimp at the same time, ratchets closed to hold the crimp and does a perfect job every time. Price is right too. GPE is thinking of carrying these. I bought one when he mentioned them. I hope he does start carrying them soon as I'd rather give him the sale.

    I have this one as well. does a perfect job.
