Pinball Dolly SHIPPING METHODS
Our discontinued Billiard and Pool Table Dolly can be found here

The hydraulic Yellow Jacket pinball dolly offers superior performance over the classic outdated gurney style pinball lifts costing up to $480.00.

Optional Dolly Equipment, Dolly Enhancements and Replacement Parts Sections have been added to provide additional functionality and construction customizing to our state of the art pinball dolly.

 Fact: Most damage to side art, score board or playfield glass, coin door and other hard to repair or replace game parts is caused by the moving of the pinball game.

 A custom built dolly designed to move nothing but a pinball can limit the possibility for game damage and makes moving a 350 pound game quick and painless.

Tested to fit under the following manufacture's pinball games:







Gottlieb, Game Plan, Williams, Bally, Stern, Chicago Coin,
Data East / Saga and Atari Pinball Games

We can offer shipping to most destinations in the U.S.A., but can not ship overseas or out of country. Full payment is due after the dolly has either been built or is in inventory.
Replacement YJ dolly parts can still be ordered via the dolly order form and will be manufactured when ordered.

Using hydraulic lift, the Yellow Jacket pinball dolly stops the arcane practice of using the operator's weight to lift the pinball machine and makes it possible to lift and move even the heaviest of electromechanical pinball machines. Hydraulics allow for very smooth and gentle set-downs.

High hydraulic dolly lift height of up to 31 inches (variable dolly lift height - measured from ground level to bottom of pinball) with optional 5 inch or the front Curb Climbing sized wheels allows for effortless and stable loading of a pinball onto a medium sized pickup truck. No more lifting the pinball off the dolly; just roll the Yellow Jacket pinball mover up to the back of the truck and slide it on.

The Yellow Jacket's lift mechanism and center of gravity are located near the base of the dolly. This produces a low center of gravity for a very stable dolly operation - in spite of the dolly's compact footprint.

Dolly can be used as a pinball repair table.  This dolly can provide a height adjustable platform for doing pinball game or play field repair. Totally lowering the dolly insures the pinball will not slide off of the dolly. A fully lowered pinball with its legs removed can be safely and easily rolled around a repair shop or game room.

The Yellow Jacket uses the standard industrial pinball dolly width, large wheels and a low center of gravity - insuring tilt free operation.
Total Dolly Load Weight Capacity = 1000 pounds. (using 4 or optional 5 inch wheels). This dolly can easily support the heaviest of four player electro-mechanical pinball games weighing in excess of 350 pounds.
The standard dolly width insures the dolly will roll between the front legs of a pinball for easy dolly positioning. However, with the Curb Climbing front wheel option, the dolly may have to be rolled under the game between the front and back legs on one side of the pinball cabinet.

 Removable Lift and Lower Control Handles - The lifting handle only protrudes from the coin door end of the pinball approximately five inches and does not interfere with the dolly operator's legs. This feature eliminates the "shin bruising" caused by the stepped on lifting bar used on other dollies and increases the Yellow Jacket dolly's ease of use.
ALL control handles can be removed and reapplied during dollied game transportation to avoid any unwanted handle to operator interaction.

 Built using LARGE 4 inch solid metal roller bearing hub and lined rubber tire wheels (4 inch wheel on left side or the optional 5 inch wheel on the right side of photo).
 All wheel options use solid airless hard rubber lined tires for easy, scratch free movement including over hardwood floors and thick carpet. Tire air is never required with any size wheel we provide for this dolly.

Dolly Wheel Options: This dolly is made with stock four inch wheels. Optional 5 and even huge front end mounted 10 inch Curb Climbing wheels can be installed. Optional wheel sizes provide the largest rubber lined wheels available on a retail marketed pinball dolly.
Note: Total dolly width is increased to 20 inches with the Curb Climbing wheels option. A dolly with the Curb Climbing option might not roll between the two front legs of a pinball. Dolly can be positioned under the game by rolling it between the front and back legs on one side of a game. Most, but not all games provide enough width between front legs for this dolly to roll between them even with the Curb Climbing dolly enhancement.

Upper rail assembly anti sway bars have been added to decrease front to back game motion when moving a pinball and to further steady the dolly. This helps to insure a heavily loaded dolly will not sway when the game is pushed by the operator. The added sway bar assembly provides both a clean look and easier dolly use.

The very tight turning radius, small footprint and large wheel size of the Yellow Jacket pinball dolly provides for a faster and easier job when positioning a game or rolling a dolled pinball onto a lift gate; compared to the old design and longer "gurney" styled dolly. This saves valuable time when loading a large number of games onto a box truck, especially if the truck uses the small width "hide-away" lift gate.

 The dolly's sturdy metal frame allows for easy tie-down use with no need to adjust the tie-downs when raising or lowering the pinball game on the dolly. Tie-downs help to make the moving of games up/down steep and rough inclines quick and easy.

 Note: Ratcheting Tie-Downs can be purchased at most building supply houses or hardware stores and are NOT included with the dolly.

Padding must be provided between a folded down backbox and the playfield glass guides or crimping might result to the glass guides when the pinball machine is dollied or when straps are used. The tie-down's metal mechanism must also be padded to protect the game's side-art. Cardboard will work fine for this padding.

 A pinball dolly VS A pinball lifter VS A lifting table
  A true pinball dolly is used to both lift a game off the ground to facilitate leg removal and functions as a transporter for moving a pinball machine.
 While a pinball lifter is typically used to lift the game for leg removal only. Some lifter models allow for limited movement of the game, normally use very small wheels and the lifter can get in the way of the operator or be hard to store.
 There are lifters on the market now that don't go under enough of the game to support outside use, down hill movement or over rough terrain game transportation. The pinball simply hangs too far over the front of the lift and is therefore potentially front heavy and unstable (This potentially serious issue is even stated in an on site video for one such product.). Use of tie downs to hold the game on the lifter is mandatory with pinball lifter use.

 A cheaply manufactured lifting table has to be modified to use and can only be placed under the side of the pinball. Instead of centered under the game and pushed through the front legs like a real pinball dolly. Lifting tables (unless they are very expensive tables) come with stock small three inch all plastic or metal wheels and don't use any form of wheel ball/pin barring (solid metal wheels will scratch wood flooring and don't roll too well over thick carpet).
 The Yellow Jacket uses an airless scratch free rubber lined tire over a large metal wheel hub.
 Plastic wheels will not last long when moving the normal 350+ pound weight of a pinball (even over smooth concrete floors). In the long run, there is nothing saved by buying a cheap lifting table to move pinball games. The damage to side art and game cabinet wood from using a table outweighs any benefit from an initially cheaper purchase price. Lifting tables are simply not designed to move a pinball.

 In comparison, the Yellow Jacket has always used an automatically activated mechanical brace to keep a fully lowered game from sliding off the dolly. Although holding straps are strongly recommended for extra safety, these straps don't require adjustment to raise or lower a dollied pinball.
Also, the removable dolly control handles make our dolly easy to store under an operating pinball game and the dolly can be carried in the same truck as the game. 

 The Yellow Jacket Dolly is constructed to easily lift a 350 pound or more electromechanical or electronic pinball off the ground and to move the game where ever you want it using large sized scratch free wheels.

  It uses a low center of gravity, enough dolly weight and the correct under game operating position to allow for a safe game move or dollied game to truck bed transfer.

  *Special Note Regarding 8 and 10 inch Curb Climbing wheels 
Shipping method and costs have changed to $80 per dolly due to the 100+ lbs. total dolly weight of this option. These large front wheels will increase the total dolly weight by approximately 15 lbs. The front wheels are shipped in a separate box from the dolly and must be applied by the customer using two 3/4 inch wrenches and the two bolts provided.
8" front wheels use 4" back end swivel wheels
10" front wheels use 5" back end swivel wheels

Yellow Jacket DOLLY ORDER FORM

Custom wheel size and type - Additional costs per dolly & Shipping Cost Increases

   Wheel configuration example - installing custom 5 inch sized wheels.

 4 or 3 inch wheels -  no extra cost. However, 3 inch wheels will have to be custom ordered. The stock size is 4 inch wheels.

 5 inch wheels - Additional $15 per dolly. Option will slightly increase total dolly weight.   No effect on shipping costs.

 The customer must request the wheel type and size customizations when ordering a dolly and reimburse Pinball Medic for the additional parts, labor and shipping costs of a custom wheel configuration.

  Cost of Curb Climbing Front Wheels - $35 plus increased shipping costs using a two box method. Large 10 or 8 inch diameter solid rubber front wheels are being adapted to fit on our stock Yellow Jacket main metal frame. The curb climbing dolly is able to go over very large obstacles like a street curb when a pinball is strapped onto the dolly. These new front mounted 10 inch solid rubber wheels do not increase either the total dolly lift height or the ground clearance of this dolly. This option will not decrease the dolly's stability as the main dolly frame is not lifted higher off the ground. What this option offers is extremely easy obstacle roll over. Street curbs and single/double steps will no longer be impediments!

 Curb Climbing Wheels Note: Total dolly width is increased to 20 inches with the Curb Climbing wheels configuration and may not roll between the two front legs of a pinball. Dolly can be positioned under the game by rolling it between the front and back legs on one side of the game.
 Pinball Medic is very near the completion of the test phase of these curb climbing wheels. The estimated cost of this option is $35 with an additional shipping box and shipping expenses required for these heavy wheels. With the oversized 5 inch wheel option, the dolly will have an inch difference in height between the back and the front of the dolly (rear of the dolly is higher then the front.). This should not cause any issues with the use of this dolly. The customer is responsible for attaching the two front wheels using the provided bolts and lock nuts.

 Wheel Configuration Design Note:  Our Coin Operated pinball dollies are normally constructed with two straight non-swivel wheels on the front of the dolly and two swivel wheels on the rear (rear=control lever end of dolly).  Rear mounted swivel wheels allow the placing of a pinball machine between two other pinball games when maneuvering space is at a premium, provides dolly operator with complete control of the steering of the dolly and a very tight turning radius.
  A dolly with four swivel wheels is hard to move back and forth because swivel wheels tend to "lock-up" and stop turning with this kind of motion. This is the reason Pinball Medic uses two straight wheels at the front and two swivel wheels at the back of the dolly as the stock wheel configuration.

 Stock 4 inch diameter wheels (left wheel in photo) - Offer less total dolly weight then the 5 inch size wheels with only an inch decrease in Total Dolly Lift Height. Allows the dolly to easily fit under very low clearance pinball games (Safe Cracker pinball) or a wide body Gottlieb pinball with short front legs (Gottlieb's Roller Disco).

 5 inch wheels (right wheel in photo) - This size of wheel provides easy dolly maneuvering over the thickest of shag carpeting and high ground clearance for clearing dolly obstacles. This wheel size is larger then the 'optional large wheel kits' of any industrial pinball dolly on the market today. A five inch wheeled dolly will still fit under a pinball game and it only increases the cost of a dolly by $15.

 4 & 5 inch wheel Note: Four inch wheels have the SAME Wheel Load Capacity as five inch wheels.  The Total Dolly Load Capacity is not affected by installing four or five inch wheels on a dolly. Four inch sized dolly wheels can improve the compatibility between the dolly and its operator as they decrease the total dolly weight without sacrificing the easy thick carpet roll through provided by the five inch wheels.

 3 inch wheels - (not in wheel size photo) Offer the lightest dolly weight of any wheel option and will not increase the cost of the dolly.
Note: Two inch wheels are the standard size wheel on other commercial quality pinball dollies.

 This dolly will lift much higher then the old 'Gurney' style of pinball dolly.  It's also very stable when fully raised.

 The dolly has an automatically engaged mechanism to stop a legless pinball from sliding on a fully lowered dolly. Raising the game slightly to load a game on a truck will release this mechanism.

 Removable Lift Control Handle only protrudes five inches and will not interfere with the dolly operator's legs or walking ability.

 The dolly can be shipped with the largest available wheels on a retail marketed pinball dolly (5 inch wheels and 10 inch front curb climbing wheels).
Each wheel uses hardened roller bearings and hard rubber lined scratch free metal wheel hubs.

Over a 1000 pounds of coin-op in one mid-sized truck.

 We have managed to fit (without damaging the games) three up righted pinball games (one a wide body pin), a full sized upright arcade game and a Yellow Jacket dolly inside the same mid-sized pick-up truck (a Mazda B4000 with a cab and regular bed length).

 5 inch wheeled Yellow Jacket Dolly in a mid-sized Truck with room to spare. Try that with another dolly or platform lift!
The compact size of this heavy duty pinball dolly with removable control handles really helps when moving a large game collection without the benefit of a large vehicle or trailer. It's also very easy to store under a game.
