anyone use a brunswick converion kit to.....

bbb · Jan 16, 2018

i am thinking of having bruswick make new rails for me to put on my gold crown 1 or 2
they said i would need a conversion kit and the rails would be gold crown 5 rails
i also asked them to make the pockets 4 3/8 inch
is this a good idea ?
anyone have any experience with this ?
your comments greatly appreciated
i know mark gregory and jeremy chambers are other options

Does the cost justify it? I wonder what the price would be. I am willing to bet that Mark's rails would still have a higher quality level of work and precision.

Not a mechanic...

Check out this thread about a new pool room in Chicago. One of our members confirmed in that thread they used GC5 tops on GC2 bases. Maybe you can find more info there...

not yet
the woman who took my request called me back and stated brunswick needed to know if i have a ball return (yes ) or drop pockets
and size of table 9 '
you would think the dealer would know to ask that the first time around
i think its prudent for me to pm you thier quote when i get it

Bumping this thread to see if the OP ever got a quote for the conversion kit.

Incidentally, I was just at Surge a couple days ago. The converted tables are gorgeous. I really like the white bases with black tops. Here are some photos I took while I was there ...

Looks awesome! I think Mark Gregory had a hand in the design of those new GC rails, so they should play as good as they look.
