Flipper Rebuild

I will cover this in detail in a thread of its own once I've finished the process, as there are some differences between my kit and the RGP Kit. I'm trying a different plunger. Marco listed them as being in stock when I ordered, but they sent me an equivalent.

Anyhow - What I'm trying to do is create a Stern Flipper Rebuild kit. Here's A picture of all the parts except the plungers and coil stops;





Here's the original plunger and links. I don't think they are the only style of original plungers, as I've seen the link in bakerlite and plastic. The plungers are a little different than standard Gottlieb and Bally.





Here is the plunger and link Marco sent me !





The idea is to remove the pin and replace the link with the replacement from PBR.


Link replaced. Using a caliper, the difference is 1/18th of an inch. The plunger is 2 1/8 inch. They are very close in size.





Here is the plunger, link, pawl etc mounted in the RHS flipper base. Coming along nicely !





More to come tomorrow !
