Indeed. Usually because the manual is wrong. Had the same thing most recently with T2.
Thats why it pays to have a stash of the regular used rubbers also. You can never have too many 5/16" post rings in my experience

You could let him know its wrong so he can adjust. Of course comparing to what was on a game isn't always right either as sometimes previous owners use whatever they have to hand.
OP

1x mini post 3/8",

Get back in contact with whoever sold the kit then they can send you whats missing and also updated there records so it does not happen again.
Good work so far, you have jumped in which I am very happy to see.
I have bought my rubber kits from Andy, The Legend, at Pinball Mania and they were spot on. For CFTBL I thought he hadn't sent enough coloured post rubbers but it turns out that the original machine didn't have rubbers on the skill posts but over time people put them on there. He sent me two more coloured ones the next day.

I build ring kits based on the manual originally. Manuals were often not updated to the quantities used in production, and certainly do not support different versions like TZ. I always update kits based on feedback, and if in doubt, send extras with the kit.

Does anyone know what type of post is behind / next to the sanctum? There's a rectangle blue rubber pad either side of which is an extended post with blue sleeve and another one but its been replace with some crude bolt,washer,plastic pipe and blue sleeve combo. It's not an extended one because nowts attached to the top.
You sent it inside a PS3?
OP
OP
Lol no it's plastazote (high density foam) from work I made it a lil padded enclosure
OP
OP
I've been busy regraining and polishing my guides. Didn't get totally anal just wanted to get rid of the worst of the wear. Used a scotch pad, wet and dry and autosol.
I just use Autosol, came up really nice.

Well now I'm stuck Andy has tested my powerboard and there are no probs. that was my last glimmer of hope :0(. Back to the drawing board.
On the plus side I got a few more bits done this w/e. Stripped and cleaned the left and right phurba, popper, mini drop down, ball eject, sanctum wall (awaiting a new wall target from andy) coils and assemblies new coil sleeves and replaced the 2 dodgy switches. Also did a wire repair to one of the optos on the magnet it had worn thru to the wire.
