Do you guys happen to know what type of bearings are on the idler side on the x-axis of the CTC 3DPrinter? Mine split in two when I dismantled the x-axis to find what was causing some terrible clicking sound… Let’s just say I found the cause but don’t know what to replace it with.

Do the bearings spin without them feeling like they are binding in any manner? If so, I would use the same bearings again as it seems like the problem had to do with failure of the plastic part. Finding replacement shoulder type bearings can be quite difficult. Does the manufacturer of the printer sell those?

Just a thought!
