[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 6271, member: 82"] I replaced my detent balls when i had the control block back in the machine... OOOH what a bitch it was..... The balls are cheap as, while you are in there, change them!. I found the easiest way was to use a cable tie and pliers. Use a few dobs of grease on the spring so the balls don't fall out and wrap a cable tie around it, set the ball to where it loops back to lock the ball in place, the other one can be a pest to keep aligned when tightening the tie. Use pliers to get it that little more tension out of it. Buy a few balls too, they find ways of flying out and getting lost! Yes, be very careful with seal directions, the black quad rings can go on either way but if your machine uses the other pressure seals (i think my kit had green and orange ones too??), make sure the seal lips face the pressure side IE the inside of the control block and defiantly change the rubber boots. They are cheap and they will save wear on the spools. There are 2 styles of boot, one is plastic which have been replaced with rubber. If you have the old ones, remove them and the bronze spacer and install the new boot without the spacer. Any problems just yell, i have been there before! [/QUOTE]
