[QUOTE="King_Julian_S, post: 1153788, member: 14111"] Ok thx guys, I think I will go with machine oil. So [USER=15197]@afroaudio[/USER] tell me more about this thrust plate please. I don't understand why the plate goes over the hole(which in my mind is going to help centre the ball bearing), is that correct ? Here is the bottom of the cup with the ball bearing in that hole, but without the plate [ATTACH=full]30917[/ATTACH] This is the bottom of the cup with the plate over that hole shown above. [ATTACH=full]30919[/ATTACH] So, should I leave the plate there? And then reassemble this upside down, i.e. Place the bearing in the hole at the bottom of the spindle, like this.. [ATTACH=full]30922[/ATTACH] Then the plate inside the cup like above(hoping a drop of oil will keep it in place) and then close it up. What I am worried about is that the ball or plate may move out of position when I close the cup 🙈.. [/QUOTE]
