This is an upgrade to the M8 2mm pitch (4 starts) lead screw setup for my Folgertech 2020 Prusa i3 Printer, but it can be implemented to any printer that uses a standard brass T-nut and lead screw.
After a short time I realized my lead screw nuts were wearing out and had quite a bit of play in them, so I bought replacement. however, they were not much better, the machining and quality of these inexpensive lead screws and nuts are not the best. So I designed this simple anti-backlash setup.
