C5-Ben:
Hi,

C5-Ben:
Does it mean from C5Martin Post, that i didn't need that part which holds the small bearing balls in place?

That is correct, the small "cage" that holds the bearings is not essential - it simply makes the assembly process easier and probably helped speed up the production line when the c5's were being built. If anything , removing the "cage" is a good thing because it means you use more bearings than standard.

I've done this myself on two C5's - it is a bit fiddly but does work.
