Tell Henry that C.J. sent you. bbutcher85710 03-03-2008, 06:28 AM If your lead screw nuts are just sloppy, you can usually split them and take up the slack with the retaining screw. See the Bridgeport operators manual in the http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/bridgeport_mill_manuals1/ for a photo. The file should be labeled Operators manual 1981, and the diagram of the table shows where to split the X-axis nut (somewhere in the middle). I have also seen a technique where the nut is split about 80% through and the retaining screw forces the gap to close. I think the full split nut would be better since it should wear more evenly. ktb100 03-03-2008, 10:00 AM I have them in stock.

I'm not sure if it will work, this machine that I need the nuts for isn't a Bridgeport and some parts vary among the original Bridgeport. I have them in stock.
