A word of warning, the end brackets are steel on cast iron. mine
ground into the cast iron within a month. It is crying our for
thrust bearings, and they are a simple add-on and a good fix.

Another note is that Grizzley has the spare parts. screws, nuts and
cast iron ends.

ps: my guess on the servos is IMSERV ?
