Hi Everyone,

I could be in as well but my understanding is that it is really something that needs to be custom done to get a really tight fit. Has anyone used a generic bearing like the one Buzz makes?

Also, don't get me wrong I know Buzz is an icon in the Express fleet, I have just heard some other information and thought I should bring it up. Curious to hear what others have to say.
