Chris,

Thanks for the info.  (Sorry for the delayed response)

So, how about a progress report?  BTW, I had a thought as to why your thrust
bearings may have worn prematurely.  Perhaps the eccentric shaft end-play
was too tight and caused the failure.  Anyway, don't forget to check the
end-play after installing the new bearings.

Mark
