Hi Dave...Are you referring to the levers on the mechanism itself that are out of alignment? If so how do you correct this? Would those levers have anything to do with the gripper position when it returns a record? This is driving me crazy trying to figure out. Thanks for your reply

It's been ages since I worked on an E, but if the gripper pivot design
is similar to the g to continental 2, an a or b side lug engaged into the back of the gripper casting, operated by a solenoid and a bracket assembly.
I'm thinking in your case, is that engaged correctly on the b sides,
because if it isn't, the gripper will likely wobble and probably shove the record back in the wrong slot.
The E is more like the 78 mechanism, in that the gripper "switches sides" purelymechanically at the carriage transitions from moving one direction to moving theother. So it goes down the rack one way, picking up the A sides, then at the endof travel the lug assembly is pushed to the opposite side and it goes back in theother direction picking up the B sides. The way I can imagine that the carriagecould be properly centered on the rack, pick the A sides correctly, but be misaligned for the B sides (or vice versa in this case) would be if the trip leverand selection levers for that side are out of alignment in relation to the alignmentof the "good" side.
