        A little wear on the ball may not be such a bad thing, when they were new they would actually wear a hole in your finger.

Ha! That texture was painful when new! My mom actually bought pac-man (R) band-aids for my pac man blisters when I was a kid!! Now thats love!!

You can also salvage grommets out of Wico "Command Control" joysticks originally made for Atari/C64/Sega consoles and computers. Should cost you <$5
SHEEET! For some reason I read rubber grommet and instantly thought Wico.  WRONG! Pac stick is not Wico!

Well Fed Games:

Thanks for all the good info.. I am sure I'll come across some other parts I will need from Bob Roberts as well.

boardjunkie:

No uh-ahh on the Wico grommet. They are not even close to the same size shaft. Midway sticks are smaller diameter and the grommet is not as stiff as a Wico. Pinball Resource had some that looked real close to Midway grommets, and they musta been the real deal 'cause they didn't stick around long at 5$ each.
