Please note: For those with the newer version of the FT-5 with the new style idlers, I have uploaded a revised X idler lower body to accommodate the difference in hole sizes of the factory X idler brackets. Essentially the revision is the same less the locator pin as currently equipped. It is listed as XMAINBODYLATE. Thanks to the folks that let me know of the design differences.
This is a more robust design of the Folgertech FT-5 X idler assembly using more commonly acquired 608 bearings also widely used as skateboard bearings designed to be a drop in modular assembly for the originally equipped components. Feedback positive or negative is always welcomed and encouraged "of course if tastefully spoken" as that is how we all learn. If this works for you please show it off by posting a make of it as it is what keeps inspired to do more. If for some reason it doesn't, please let me know and I'll do what I need to to make it work. Thanks to John Folger for the awesome machine he has mad
