That's hot! Looks like you have a bit of cleaning to do. The 3550 looks spotless. Good luck bearing boy.

IIRC, there should be the lucky #13 of them. They fit tight. If there is any gaps, you're still missing one. I grease them good and it keeps them all in place.

Back at work again today, this time on Folly by Wendy"s. If you are still working on it tomorrow afternoon, I can run over and give you a hand.

I was going to say 11 or 13 - I knew it was an odd number. After Bart saying 13 I'd say that's it!
