Ok, so I ordered some longs, and decided to tear apart and rebuild my front end for the first time. My question is about the bearings. After I cleaned them up real good, there is no discoloration and they appear to spin really easy. The only thing I notice is a little mark between the rollers. Up towards the upper end of the bearing. Should wait four weeks and get all new ones form Marlin or just replace all the seals, felts, etc.. basically I need to know how to tell if the ones in there are still good.
