The Parts Zone

. Replacement bumper stuff, coils, etc.......... Steve Young, Pinball Resource is the site. Give him a few days to respond. he's a busy busy guy. I've been dealing with Steve for about 10 years now. Just be sure to tell him EXACTLY what you want or he won't be able to help you. If you don't have a part number or don't know what the part is called, then you should provide a good description.

Bumper caps http://www.crowriver.com/nl/cs002.htm Never dealt with them not yet anyway.

Pinball Rescue frequently reproduces hard to find plastic sets.

Rubbers, bulbs..... http://www.competitiveproducts.com $50 min order. Just buy tons of bulbs and rubbers of all sizes and you got it. Then you don't have to worry about running out of stuff on a Saturday night around 1 AM. Generic bulbs are a ok. I have used a few hundred and maybe one was bad. I've had a few new bad GE's, various types.

I would also recommend subscribing to Mr. Pinball Classified. It's free, emailed daily, bright and early every morning, 7 days a week. You can subscribe to parts for sale and machines for sale and wanted.

Yet another great source of parts and pins is the newsgroup rec.games.pinball. Everything pinball is posted 24/7. If it wasn't for this group, I would only have a couple pins right now and no clue how to fix them. Anybody that knows me knows I was afraid to even remove a backglass to change a bulb.

I also recommend the shows, especially the ones with outdoor flea markets. Don't pass that box of junk by too quickly. It could be filled with lockbars, hard to find coils, whatever. Don't forget to grab a trashed playfield if it's cheap. Underneath it lies a lifetime supply of wire harnesses, wires, coils, brackets, bulbs, and lights. That playfield could pay for itself after using just a couple parts.

And of course......Ebay. USE CAUTION HERE. If you have any questions about the item, do not hesitate to ask. If the seller cannot, or will not answer your questions, look elsewhere for the item.
