Tim & Bill, This is a "Reply All".
A couple years ago there was an excellent discussion here about Gears. Perhaps one of you "Smart guys" can ferret it out and re-post the "meat of themessages ". Thanks.

Someone in the management side may separate it anyway. None the less super useful information on both sides and thanks so much of contributing. I for one enjoy your information as others.

I mounted the rails on top of the existing rails. I found the Legacy rails weren’t straight, they were bowed out in the middle, who knows why. Anyway I laid the linear rails straight and held them down with flat head sheet metal screws. Aligned the second rail to the first and secured it. Took some time, but hey they are straight. One issue I did spend too much time on was the y axis lead screw. I had to move the block out missing the new rails, changing the height and getting it level. Only issue with aluminum, magnets can’t help hold them. I used the plates from the original Y axis to give me the Z axis mountings. Only way I could figure it out. Hope all of this helps. These are the ones I used.
