Description: Shellplate Bearing Kit Dillon RL 550, RL 550B, RL 550C kit includes the very popular shellplate bearing kit, index sprocket, and extra length shellplate bolt. The bearing kit provides smooth indexing with tighter tolerances. Tactile feel for priming is enhanced and more consistent priming is achieved. No adjustment of dies required.We spent some time looking at reviews and reading the forums to find out what we could do to improve this kit. We read that once the bearing kit is installed it lifted up the shellplate bolt enough that the set screw on the left side of the ram contacted the threads instead of the shoulder of the bolt. So we started making the extra length shellplate bolt included with this kit. All of the 550 kits we sell on eBay include the extra length bolt. We found that almost everyone who ordered a kit without one ended up getting one from us. Don't forget to loosen the grub screw on the left side of the ram before removing the bolt, then tighten it back up after reinstalling. By including the extra length bolt it will save you time, money, and frustration.This video is about determining if your press needs the extra length bolt (450 owners this is important, please watch, the longer bolt may not work with a 450).How to determine if your Dillon 550 needs the extra length shellplate bolt. - YouTubeVideo will open in a new windowUsing the eBay App?

So we stopped including these with our kits. The 550 relies on the detent ball to position the casings properly. The best solution is using the steel ball supplied with the press. If still interested, the our phenolic resin low mass ball sold for XL650 presses will fit and is sold separately.Detailed instructions come with each of our kits. We also maintain a FAQ with the latest tips and tricks for your press. You may want to check that out before purchasing a kit.
