Thanks for the reply busdriver. I was under the impression that a sealed BB meant sealed, as in you open it up and you'll never be able to close it again. You might as well try rebuilding a crashed satellite. I guess I'll take it apart and see. I didn't have any plans for it.
Looks like no one really has any info regarding the parts I'm looking out for, or have I come to the wrong forum?
