Subject: 1995 Campag Hub bearing size?

I have what I believe is a +- 1995 Campagnolo rear 8-speed hub that I
can save and use if I can find the right balls for it.
With nine 1/4 inch balls fitted on each side, the cones and jamb nuts
take up too much space on the axle, leaving no room for the drop-outs
to rest. I therefore assume that it requires smaller balls? But how
many and what size? Also, are they of the same size both sides?

Thanks John and Andrew. Now for that calculation that'll help me
identify the 7 /32 balls with a metric vernier....

No need to measure with a caliper.
Use a sealed packet marked "Grade 25 7/32" balls".
It's the alikeness (not roundness or any other feature) which gives them
value. Don't mix bearings from different sets or of unknown provenance.

Record-8 right side is a front cone with a 10mm thread; 7/32" balls,
10 count IIRC.

There should be (9) one-fourth inch balls in the left cup. The right
cup is home to (10) seven thirty-seconds inch balls.
