Your blue arrow is the quarter oversize gauge and your red arrow is the quarter cradle. Both have very little to do with the dime path. Sounds like your main scavenger plate is bent. The MSP is the part that the cradle is mounted on.

It doesn't appear bent. Would such a small bent that you cant even see cause the dime to fall through and not the quarter? If it helps if I hold the cradle in one position while dropping a dime in it will fall through like normal. Of course the quarter gets stuck at the cradle so holding it in place somehow is out of the question.

When you drop the dime through, does it make it to the point indicated by the red arrow then get rejected or is it before that?  

Second pic, does the dime get stuck where the green arrow is?  If so, try moving the bar marked with the blue arrow all the way out and drop a dime through, does it work now?

I have drawn on tkaz's picture.
The curvy red line (on both pics) indicates the dime's path. The dime should be forced through the rejector main plate to the back side at the green oval.
On the back side, it rolls under the magnet and should miss the deflector and hit the separator. Your deflector is in the green oval. Loosen the deflector screw and move it all the way out in the direction of the arrow.

It is hard to tell from a pic, but it looks like your dime scavenger plate may be bent and that could an issue.

  I wish I got that replay a couple hours ago. I figured out the path and what the problem's are though. tkaz post lead me to look at it differently. First off some A-hole took the spring off and one pin that holds the rod on at the red arrow. Of course never putting it back on. I'm screwed there. This was causing the plate to have play in it at the green arrow making the dime fall right out of the mech. Sometimes it would get jammed at the blue arrow. I noticed that (probably the same A-hole) took the spring off there and got it jammed under the magnet so the coin had nowhere to go. I got that spring back in place. I adjusted the screw on the back to put more pressure on the bottom, now I can get it to take a dime like 1 out of 15 times. If I push with my finger at the green arrow it will work every time. So now I have to find a spring that will work. I feel sure this is the problem. If you have any advice on how to correct this spring issue I would appreciate it. Thank you all for your help. I was on the verge of bashing this thing with a hammer and tossing it out.

Coming in a little late... but also make sure the two screws located by the green arrow are not too long because they will keep the dime path "open" due to the dime slipping through as the "triangular" guide those two screws fasten will be raised allowing the dimes to fall through at this point.
Not sure if this makes sense...

I bought an ap for my phone that resizes my photos and I can post them pretty easy .

For Android users there Is a free one called 'reduce photo size'.  600X800 works great!

Yep it makes sense after looking back at my picture. It took me a second to get an angle so that I can see the back clearly but they are not sticking through at all. Thanks. Till I figure something out I guess I will be telling people hold you finger here while I insert a dime.

Oh just a little update here. I got it adjusted to the point where it will pass 90% of the time and jam the other 10%. Acceptable for me but now its rejecting here at my red arrow. The small moving piece at the blue arrow was stuck in place I pushed till it came loose. It still seems a little dirty/dragging feeling. I want to take the two screws out at the bottom so I can clean the track real good but its holding together multiple plates. Is it safe to remove those screws?

You will want to remove the nut/lockwasher & screw/brass washer from the front cover plate, then remove these two screws.
