Hah. I was going to suggest you send it to rockerarms.com, but figured
shipping would be prohibitive.
BTW, when did rockerarms rebuild your shaft? There's been at least one
change of ownership and a name change, I think, and responses have been
spotty. They did my BJ8's shaft many years ago, and it's held up well.

<div>It seems the two inner pedestals are free floating, and the
