wrong.....if you use tungsten balls when you come to change the plates they will have a wear ring all the way round, when I used the ceramic balls the diff ring was ripped to bits not a nice even wear ring and there was a lot of metal bits in the pulley....... if you dont belive me try it yourself and see or give these people a ring they will be able to explain it in more detail, I got the tungsten balls off them and explained what they were used for and they will tell you to use tungsten carbide not ceramic and they are a proper aircraft quality ball bearing manufacturer:
