    Red face X axis ballscrew replacement

    Hello all,

    Can someone please advise me the procedure to install the X ballscrew in a VMC 20? I replaced the thrust bearings the other day in an attempt to get rid of noisy travel....it didn't work. While replacing the bearing, I noticed the ballscrew felt very rough when I rotated it. I have also been noticing a choppy finish when cutting angles around a part. I ordered another ballscrew and would like to attempt the installation myself. Any tips or procedure advise would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,
    gamila
