I got one ( just a short while back) and it has the three bearing grips, BUT it didn't have the STICKY COLLECTIVE problem fixed,, Unfortunately, the washers they use on the outside location (just under the cap screw head) now have a smaller diameter hole and DON'T fit over the shaft. (feathering spindle) When the washers were swapped, it left about .060 inch (60 thousandths) of slop or play in the blade grips. So The guy at the local hobby shop located some shim washers that would (fit OVER the feathering spindle), this seems to have fixed the problem, good lluck with your blade,,,
