Nothing needs to be done on the sliders.  The only difference is the inside diameter of the spacers.   If one can safely and accurately ream them to the correct size, everything else is fine.

Anyone have any luck reaming out the spacers, and what is the difference in diameters of the midway and happ 49-way's. 

Know if it would be possible to do this with a regular drill and bits?

Ahh, I see.  I should've dug a stick out sooner instead of just going from memory.  Looks like new spacers/actuators might be the way to go for folks unable to modify the old ones.  It also looks like Happ wants big bucks for 'em.  I wonder if there's a matching nylon spacer in the bins at the hardware store?

Green Giant:
Kremmit,

Any luck trying this one out?  Wondering if you found any spacers or know where to find them.  I am having trouble with 4way games using my current sticks, and I think these grommets will help.

Kaytrim:
If anyone is interested in getting new grommets for the Midway 49-way sticks shoot divemaster a PM.  He is getting me a set from Happ and I will post results here on this thread once they arrive.  These are supposed to be for the Midway sticks which have a thinner shaft than the Happ 49 way model.

TTFN :cheers:
