Shooter Rod Spring Kit

[punkin]

Hi all, tried my google skills but got zilch


I'm looking for a kit with all the various strength, length and colour shooter springs in it so i can sort custom rods in my machines. Does anyone know if someone in Australia stocks such a thing?
If so could you provide a link?

[swinks]

haven't heard any but using pinball search it shows where and the strength relation to colour

Not in Aussie to my knowledge but Marcos in the USA used to have an assortment set.

Rtbb has a good range but you need to order them individually as there's no kit on his site

Thanks guys, i often put custom shooter rods (the heavy stainless ball type) in my machines and need to adjust. I'll order all the colours seperatly i guess, it's a shame i can't just get a set like you would with O rings, split pins etc.

We don't sell the kits, as it is easier just to order what you need in bulk.

Good topic :) Since putting my awesome custom shooter rod in thanks @swinks i think I need a stronger spring it now seems abit weak :/

WH2O needs a stronger spring as it will not get up the ramp
