New Myford Bearings - what work is required?
Do they require "scraping in" etc.?

| 71 forum posts 15 photos | Hi All. If you purchase some new replacement phosphor bronze bearings and hardened spindle for an ML7 do they require any work or are they essentially "plug and play" apart from adjusting the shims? Do they need scraping in and how to you measure the appropriate height for the required shims? |

Have a look at this previous thread, particularly comments from Blowlamp - **LINK** Funnily enough that thread contradicts the previous link so I'm now unsure again... |
