The original one ( mine was copper not brass) lasted about a month.. I replaced it with a teflon bushing... bought at lowes and cut to size, I also replaced the screw that came with it with a step stud so the roller could actualy roll... I havent replaced it since and it's been about 5 years..I've made a half dozen upgrades to that original system.. i dont recall half of them..the original definatly needs tweaking.

I do take the cover off every 100 plugs or so, clean it out with compressed air and lube all the moving parts( shafts too) with a spray dry lube...

A good run is better than a bad stand!
