Hope this is in right place just bought a Meade LXD55 127 F9. 3 Achromatic telescope and the R&P is ropey at best I would like to replace the Teflon strips that run down opposite the focuser gear teeth.

Can anyone point me in the right direction please.

I'm not entirely sure what your question is. If it's teflon you need to make the strips yourself you can get that on ebay. I just bought a 300mmx300mm sheet 1mm thick. You can get those in a lot of different thicknesses. Just search for "teflon sheets" on ebay ?
