I'll have a look. I think they were the same links in the kit as was originally on the machine but funnily enough one of the springs was broken.

In Progress Whirlwind vs DE Jurassic Park
- Thread starter PinIB
- Start date
Whirlwind would've originally used the type with much more of a pointed plunger end, which continued well into the Wpc era, including the early Fliptronic/II games. I didn't take to the new arrangement, and continued using the pointed type. But putting a conical spring in with the newer link on later games (to obtain the 'feel' I preferred) often resulted in it getting broken, and fouling the flipper return.

Just rebuilding the spinners.
The new spinner decals have a different shade of blue. Anyone remember whether WW sometimes had dark blue - it’s messing with my OCD.

Treading carefully with the new playfield. Progress being made.

First wtf moment of the day. Pop bumper holding screw snaps. Surprisingly easy to tap out and replace with a modern one. They don’t match but I’ll live. Kruzman playfield potion seems to work.

Good progress today despite none of the dimples matching the old playfield.

Most mechs in. A couple to do on the top side. This takes a hideous amount of time on a new playfield.
