Title: Bally Elektra Flipper Bats 1981 - Lower playfield
Post by: Andrew65 on October 07, 2016, 12:43:28 AM

Dear All,

Looking for a supplier of Bally bats for an Elektra lower playfield. 

Might sound easy but I have an Elektra which has a perspex cover over the main playing field (original design) which acts as a cover for the lower playing field.  This makes the playing field about 5mm higher than a standard playing field.  Upper playfield is fine with standard A-3994 bats.

Consequently the shafts on the flipper bats for the lower playing field need to be longer.  The standard A-3994-x bats are just not long enough.  The Bally part number is a A-3994-15 but I cannot seem to find a supplier  ^&^ anywhere that stocks these.
 
There is a spacer that lifts the bat to the right height and for the life of me I cannot locate a replacement.

Any suggestions?

Andrew

I can't help with an available part but if you need a custom one, just let me know, happy to create a longer shaft for the custom swappable bats that I have made available.
