Default Andrews TW21

hello,

I received my cams Andrews TW21, Dyna FXDL 2005 The picture is misleading, the roller bearing is not included with the cams (No. 5 ronnie's) only included the ring and gasket. In this case: remove the ring does not pose problems, put in place the same bearing ball ???, what do you think ??

As long as you have it open, I'd change the bearings. Its cheap insurance.

What about the inner bearings? They definitely should be changed to full compliment.
