Williams modern flipper assembly parts list
pbj:
Barring a broken part - Cleaning the sleeve, smoothing the plunger with sand paper, and filing the coil stop flat accomplishes like 95% of what a rebuild does and costs nothing.
Changing the flippers on Pin Bot is cheating.

You want this assembly:
http://www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=product&id=717
Select coil stop A-10821 and coil # FL23/600-30/2600-50VDC
Pinbot uses 50 volt flipper coils.
When you order the above complete flipper assembly and selected the items I mentioned, it will arrive with everything installed and wired, including the correct EOS switch and the spark suppressing capacitor.

Yes you could do that, but that won't eliminate any "slop" in the assembly. Slop robs the flipper of power and response.
Pinbot is from 1986 and if it hasn't had a flipper rebuild, it's waaaaaayyyy past due. You'll probably find the coil stop is worn down and the plunger excessively worn too. Not to mention the slop in the plastic link or the bolt going through the link. Don't forget the end of stroke switch has had 31 years of sparking to wear it down too. In those days they never put any capacitors on the end of stroke switches. The complete flipper assemblies I linked too have all the updates/upgrades already. The modern units also make it easy to replace an end of stroke switch because the mounting bracket is bolted on not welded.

So you think I should rebuild with that kit instead of the fliptronic style?
