Finishing off the playfield, I chose to use the white Spot Target rather than the standard Purple one. The purple target face detail looks strange with the gold lettering. I much prefer the white.
Often new playfields may be accurate with hole placement, but with flipper assemblies, I often change the mounting holes of the base plates. The most important part of the process is to centralize the flipper shafts themselves, because if you don't, they won't have the correct distance and positioning.
This is where the assembly needs to be mounted ;
Here is the flipper shoe. The diameter is less than the diameter of the hole in the playfield. Here is how to centralize it.
I wrap some tape around the diameter of the Shoe ;
and now it is dead center !
I can now fit the flipper base over the centralized shoe ;
Plunger and link has been replaced ;
Almost done under the playfield
