Microscope mechanical repair help?



I have an old Simplex microscope (actually Leitz,) with one of those
massive stands used for this type of measuring microscope. The
micrometer height adjustment went out on me years ago and I've just
been using the threaded height adjustor on the column to focus the
scope. Now, I'm at a point where I really need the fine adjustment. Is
there anyone out there who can disassemble the focusing rack that holds
the scope and replace the small ball bearings so it will function
again? If anyone can help, please let me know. Thanks.
