The steering on my Kraton 8s is binding and not returning to center. I going to replace the servo and I have been trying find out if bearing can be installed in the servo saver? It looks like they might be bushings and I want to replace with bearings instead. Anyone know what size bearing I would need?

Assuming I'm looking at the right diagram, it has a bearing.
However, if it's binding adding a bearing probably won't fix the issue. Figure out what is binding and fix that. There are a dozen things it could be, bent tie rods, dirt in the system pillow balls too tight, broken spring, worn or broken plastic parts, something is loose or misaligned, ... All of these fixes are much cheaper, if not free and easier than swapping a bearing for a bushing.

Thank you so much for the diagram and information. I’ve been searching for a diagram like that and have not been able to find one. I appreciate your help
You're welcome. Most of the models have the diagram at the bottom of the product page. The older ones are hard to find though. There are PDFs and the interactive on that pulls up the part numbers when you click on them. Although it gets a little busy.
