Missing playfield post help

[pritch33]

Can someone please tell me what playfield post goes above the left bumper on a Jurassic park machine The hole does not appear to be the same as the post on the lower side of the bumper. Pic or a link would be great.


Thanks

I have checked the manual but will check again in case I missed something? I more than likely have LOL
Thanks for the welcome.

The last three JPs I've restored all had a post on the RHS lane, but not the left. Could be coincidence, as the operators would effectively make the game harder by removing it. But why just one side ?

looked into this myself for my JP, 100% never fitted, yes factory hole

Thanks Nino I thought the one on the outside lane I am missing may have been removed to open up the gap and make things a little harder but my concern was the ball constantly hitting the plastic and possibly damaging it especially now as the machine is getting on in age. As for the other hole above the bumper I really don't see how it makes it much harder and all it does is piss me off cause it looks like something should be there LOL.

Hey guys another quick one regarding the flipper.
Nino as per our conversation  it is the right flipper that lacks a little punch when I use it, I Noticed that the spring to pull it back/tension it is quite shorter possible broken at some stage as it does not have a nice clean loop on one end of it like the other side. would this possibly have enough strength in it to restrict the flipper at all?

Thanks Ray
