Looks like you are one short!   :beer:

PK:
You got 2 sizes?
Every second ball in a ball nut is a metric poofteenth smaller. This allows it to act as an idler between the load bearing balls.

Joules:
 :palm:  Oh no.....

I'll widen the raceway every 3mm, that way each one can be alternately idle.

Joules:
 :lol:   PK, I had to look that up as I thought you were pulling my plonker....

Well friction will take care of itself as the nut heats up.
