I appreciate opinions and suggestions.

I'd say replace em all.

If you need to use it right away, they will suffice, but will likely be noisey.
Longer term - see Bill Mayo's offering.

But meanwhile, I installed the new blade, tensioned it as per instructions and made a couple of sample cuts. It did ok but tracked a little. I had a temp clamped on fence (2x4) and was on my lunch hour so in a bit of a rush.
It looks like you should also replace your Cool Blocks -
555374 Bandsaw Cool Blocks Blade Guide.
Last year, I bought Bill Mayo's bearings and bolts and was very pleased with the improvement to my bandsaw.

Here's what works for me: After you submit the post click on edit and then on "Advanced" and then the paperclip (looks like a paperclip) at the top. then you can cut (Ctrl C) the post and position it above or below the image.
There are probably easier ways but I haven't found one.
Click in the paper clip to 'attach'. As you apparently are doing.
Return to the 'Reply to Thread' screen and after positioning the cursor where you want the pix to appear, AGAIN click on the paper clip. A drop down menu will appear with a 'manage attachmennts' option, a list of your attachments, and an option to insert ALL attachments. The rest depends upon what you then click on.
You then end up with 'inserted pix'

The pix will not display in the reply screen but will in the preview and after being submitted.
