There is a little 'feel' to these bearing-less blocks, especially under load.
In Response To: "no bearings but I figure it's good for another 50 years" ()
I'm hoping some of that is alignment, which I have improved a bit. I think it was the cable nicking the edge of the wheels, under strain.
When the strain was really bad, you could feel a little grinding from the blocks, through your feet. 
At this point, I know every connection of the steering system, intimately(maybe better than I want to know it).
