Not a huge fan of the thrust bearing style. The single point of contact is still the best. I have a Lumley Ti BAS which is the lift kit. But it uses the adjustable screw conical point and an SS Lift plate with a pin hole in the middle.


I ultimately machined the point of the adjusting screw Flat & polished, and replaced the SS Lift plate with the style I make using a Titanium Lift plate & Si3N4 (Silicone Nitride) or Tungsten bearing ball. The single Ball Bearing style that Fred (sharpshooter) first came up seems to work best.
