Hi Dennis
when i replaced mine it wasn't so much as general even wear of the roundness (if you know what I mean), rather the ball had gone oval with an undercut at the base. So measuring diameter at one point might suggest no wear, but at another ovality will be revealed but it was the undercut that was scary. Needless to say I replaced mine too. Lots of info in history where people have added lubrication and ease of assembly mods.
