Hello Norbert

There are no need for the turret ring. Just some light machine oil.

I agree with Lee. My Tiger 1 turret runs smooth without bearings.

The bearings are intended for the much heavier King Tiger turret. By using them the wear and tear on the brass ring is avoided and the strain on the turret motor greatly reduced, thus reducing battery consumption.

Best regards

Lord, give me strength to change the things I am able to change.... and patience to endure the things I can not change :-) A bunch of Tiger and Panther variants, Leo II, Famo, 222s, a few 88`s and smaler ones like Hetzer, Stug III, 251, etc.
