Fellow rennlisters,
I have discovered a crack in the rubber bushing in one of my castor block. I am looking at the updated castor block replacement 951.341.023.01.
My question is do I also need the updated eccentric nut 951.341.431.02, from previous posts this will give more caster than the standard nut. But how much more?
Regards.

I say no, because I bought the 'updated' eccentric and found it to be identical to the one already on my S2. There is a side by side picture at:

Now it could be that a previous owner had replaced the eccentrics at some point, but I was still on the original caster blocks so I doubt that very much.
