As far as I know, they should all be the same. If one was bigger it is because it is a poor replacement.

I find 5 small ball bearings there; one per divot in the cup on the bottom of the bracket. Am I nuts or is one of the ball bearings larger than the rest? If this is as it is supposed to be, what is the purpose of the larger ball and in which divot does it belong? Always wanting to move smoothly towards restoration, GrnMountainBill _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
