    I'm just finishing a 25 size mill.
    Thrust bearings? ooooh no. Never again.

    Did thrusts on my X2 and they did not sit right at all on the screw ends. Wobble and excessive wear all over the place.

    Looked at thrusts on the 25 to see and then tried AC ones instead and the difference is massive.
    Had to machine some mounts myself to suit them but worth the effort in the end.

    Thrust bearings NOT recommended imo.
