    Hello Brady and Gary. I have loosely attached my new V-roller bearings as shown in the attached picture. I used grade 5 bolts for the new V-roller bearings. The bolts in the original V-roller bearings are grade 8. (They didn't have grade 8 where I shopped, and I assumed grade 5 would be OK...…) Was that a correct guess????

    I had small cold formed burs on my Z rails as shown. I did cover up my rack with duct tape to keep from getting filings stuck in my grease before I commenced filing....

    Thanks, Chuck
