Re: Pickup System Fix

if your talking about the zip ties than you could get some PVC round tubing that has an ID slightly larger than the bore of the piston and use it as a spacer. just make sure that the OD is large enough that it doesn't hit the bushing on the inside of the cylinder

Also you could try to move the piston back a hole so that it isn't as vertical and more on an angle instead (as long as it doesn't impact your ability to intake a ball).
