LWFF "belt tightening"

I bought my LWFF over a year ago, and one reason was this "belt" ststem they claimed to use which supposedly tightened as the wheel got older to stop free-play. Problem.. My wheel ahs lots of freeplay lately, in all direction, up down, in, out, left and right and forces (especially centring spring) seems weak. Can anything be done, this belt thingy they claimed to have ain't working! TIA. -- Bye!

Graham, There's a bearing kit available. Didn't bookmark the URL, but I know Achim Trensz has tried it. --Steve GraDee <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:980ld7$ml7$[email hidden]... > I bought my LWFF over a year ago, and one reason was this "belt" ststemthey > claimed to use which supposedly tightened as the wheel got older to stop > free-play. > > Problem..
