We are now going to prepare a few parts that will be used later in this chapter. Let's start with the Y bearing holders.

If you come from an Original Prusa MK3S+ you can reuse the black metal bearing clip instead of the printed ones and skip this step and the next one.

Take the 3x y_bearing_holder and insert 2x locknuts in each of them, 6x locknuts in total (reused from your Original Prusa). Those locknuts need to be reused from your Original Prusa printer.

We need to make sure that the locknuts are fully inserted in their pocket. To do this, take 1x M3x18 screw and 1x washer.

For each locknut in the y_belt_holders, insert the screw and tighten it against the washer, until the locknut is fully seated.

Remove the screw and washer and repeat for the 5 other locknuts of the bearing holders.

Make sure the 6x locknuts are fully seated in the bearing holders.
