I pulled all of the plastic parts out of their bags and there's only 7 parts that match B17005-001. Is one supposed to have elongated holes and be dissimilar? I only saw one drawing and they all look the same. In twehr's thread all of his look the same.
Also, I only have 2 8" threaded rods. In twehr's thread he's got 3 that look similar and one that's longer. I have 2 8" 2 10" and 2 13 1/8" Which are supposed to be used?
Is the end of the rod supposed to be put all the way through the pulley so the tip is flush? Is there a recommended torque setting for the set screw? Is the nylock nut supposed to be locking end down on top of the bottom bearing holder?
Thanks in advance,

Install the Z lead screw assemblies in the locations indicated on the assembly drawing. The longer two rods go in the front right and the rear left.
Z Lead Screws (build four)
Three assemblies use an 8” threaded rod and one uses a 10” threaded rod.
