Bearings falling out of rhino plates

I suspect you missed something during assembly. The bearings should be retained one way or another so they do not float out. The direction they are inserted is often important.

Likely nothing was missed. I noted the surprising lack of spacer/retention for the flanged bearing on the outer plates(when oriented with the flange inside). This confirms my suspicion though that a spacer should be added.

As you observed, the light press will not retain the bearing. It might be worthwhile to ask AndyMark. They are very supportive of their products.

It's pretty much always worth contacting FRC suppliers before you start posting on Chief Delphi when you have issues with their products-- I've found them to be almost universally highly responsive and helpful.
