1987 Olhausen 8 foot with K55 cushions?

[mcslayer]

I was advised to come here (Ask a Mechanic) from another thread in the main forum.

I bought a used Olhausen 8 foot pool table that has "Oct 13, 1987" written in marker on the underside of the cabinet. I'm also replacing the cushions and cloth.

I disassembled the rails yesterday and the old cushions are championship Fleetwood's which I understand to be k55 profile. Does this mean I can't install new Accufast cushions on this old Olhausen table? Can you switch between k55 and k66?

If I should stick with k55, would Brunswick superspeeds or artemis intercontinental no. 66 k55's be good choices?

I'll try to post some pictures later, but by my own measurement, the old cushions are greater than 1 and 1/8 inches across the top.

Your table takes k66 profile cushions. K55 will not work.

Thanks Patrick. I just wanted to be sure before I glued the new accufast cushions down. Today I peeled one of the old Fleetwoods off the rail, and without the felt the old cushions are measuring k66 dimensions.
