Marty sent me a set of rollers for the LT28 side supports.  I installed them today and they made the turner work 100% better.  Made turning with a cant hook easier too.  They cost $50 for two sets plus $12 shipping.  Money well spent!  WM should just make these standard equipment and add $50 to the price. 
BTW, these use a brass bush but I installed mine with anti-seize (per Marty's suggestion).

When I bought my sawmill, it had a single roller installed on each of the hydraulically operated log stops.

They do make rolling a log or cant go a little easier.

Really don't see a need for a second roller, but there must be a reason they come in pairs.

I'd like to see a picture of an installed roller.  I'm particurlarly concerned with the view down the length of the mill, the closer the better.   Got my own ideas of how it should work but The real McCoy would help.
