Madbull Shell

Aug 27, 2006 5:17pm
I have a madbull m203 shell that has a problem. I disassembled it (somewhat by accident) and the four bearings that sit in the valve came out. Ive tried many times to out these back in, but they all just fall out as soon as I let go of them. Does anybody know of a certain trick to this, or perhaps could help me out at the next game?

Best trick I have found is to get a little lithium grease on your fingers. Pick up the bearing, get some of the grease on them, and put them in one at a time. They tend to stick in there.

Ah ok, looks like I need to buy some lithium grease. Thanks.

i do the same trick but use teflon lube gel cuz it's gentler on the O rings

Well looks like ive run into a bigger problem. I was screwing around with putting in the bearings and two (yes, two) of them fell through the bb slots and disappeared into what seems to be thin air. I will continue looking, but can these be replaced?

take one of the remaining ball bearings down to your local ACE or Car parts dealer that does engine mods, and see if they have any matching bearings.
Seek the Narrow Gate, for the path is broad and the gate is wide that leads to destruction.
