[QUOTE="vinyljan, post: 529153, member: 14424"] If there was any oil left on the tip of the spindle, the ball might still be stuck to it. Sounds stupid, but I missed it before by searching at the bottom of the well. Diameter of the ball is 5mm, don't think size is crucial, fancy materials/ balls are for sale on the net. The ball rotates mostly on the thrustplate, not on the end of the spindle. Turning the thrustplate over if worn might be beneficial. Metal idler wheels are suppose to be better, others say it's something in the plastic that reacts with the rubber on the wheel that hardens it, so if the rubber on a plastic idler wheel is still "soft" it can work well :whistler: [/QUOTE]
