So I have replaced the 4 main pivot bearings on my sanction 1.0 & for some reason the nut to tighten it all up needs to be done up kin tight to remove all the play.
I never noticed this before when stripping & greasing the bearings, just needed nipping up.
I didnt replace the split rings, could find these on google, should I have done?
Anyone else done theirs & had any issues?

Edit when I say i didnt replace the split rings of course I refitted them, just couldnt find new ones!
