Hi all I am replacing the nuts and leadscrews in our Series II mill.
The X axis nut fits snug / tight in the housing / bracket, had to tap it out. I just got the Y axis apart and the nut is super sloppy in the housing. The nut measures 7/8 and the housing ID is 15/16. Should I sleeve it? Is this correct?
I was also going to drill a hole in both housings to let the crud fall through rather filling up the nut and chewing it and the nut up.
Thanks! - Andy
