MP10W quiet drive bearing size?

[psidriven]

My MP10W quiet drive has rusted noisy bearings. anyone know the size of the bearings and a good place to get them? seems they're a different size from the old mp10.

I tried to replace them once on a noisy dry side and it ended up being such a pain that I just got a new one, plugged it into the driver, and called it a day.

yeah, working with rusted metal isn't fun. stripped 2 of the inner screws. if you still have the broken dryside, can i try to scavenge some screws from it?

The older ones you can do it somewhat straightforwardly. The newer ones I'd contact ecotech and see if you can have them warranty them. Even if you don't have the receipt or weren't the buyer, you can ship it there and they'll end up selling you a new one at a big discount. Not sure if it's cheaper than just buying a new one, but about the same and you have the option to get a cheaper fix.
