Lost Balls for THK HSR15 Help

[planekrazie]

What will go wrong does go wrong. Just bought 2 Rails and 4 THK HSR15 Trucks from a local Surplus. Got all for $40.00. All were well used and very greasy. I started to wipe clean and Lost some of the balls out of the trucks :frown: Now what do I do. Is there anyone place that sells the small bearings? This sucks
Need some help

Find out the size you need - measure to 0.0001" resolution - do a google for "precision steel balls" - Start calling the sources found and see who will sell you what you want/need.

Don't simply ask to buy 3 balls - they won't talk to you.

Buy the 100 or so and consider it a lesson in what NOT to do next time. You already got a deal on the rails, spend what you saved fixing what you screwed up....
