I was thinking about doing that, but it's not as simple with the Gauntlet boards as they are not Jamma. Would require quite a bit of work to build a Gauntlet to Jamma adapter

As mentioned above by Superully, that is the cropped artwork and not the full size.
Spyridon:
As mentioned above, I was having a problem with a few diaganols on a couple of joysticks. I'd like to get this fully playable so I can get three people over for some good 4 player gameing. I purchased a new set up Atari joystick plungers and pivot balls from Ram Controls. David over there does some great Atari replacement parts.
First step was to remove the joystick from the control panel
4 screws on the bottom
Remove those and you end up with this:
The next part, containing the leaf switches, pulls right off
revealing the pivot ball:
The pin in the pivot ball took some work to remove, but I finally got it out. However, the pin in the small piece at the end of the stick is in there really good.
I didn't have a good tool to get it out, so I'll have to stop here until I can figure out how to get it out. Once out, I'll be able to swap the plunger and pivot ball with the new ones. These should feel real nice after the rebuild.

Since you don't care about the old one, feel free to use destructive force on it. Like a Dremel.

I need the piece at the end with the small pin in it. I don't have a replacement for it.
SirPeale:
Oh, I thought that was one of the things that got replaced.
Well then...a rod the diameter of the pin, knock it out.
