    According to this site http://ibanez.wikia.com/wiki/JEM555 you should also have the Lo-trs II in your guitar. Therefore, an original floyd rose should fit. Make sure it is original. But: Many part suppliers also give you measurements so you could check before buying. It’s important that the mounting studs are the same distance from each other. http://floydrose.com/authentic_parts/images/Exploded_FR_Original.gif

    (getting the springs in is really the most difficult part of it, the rest just needs patience)

    Mmh, little language barrier here. Nut as in locking nut? No, I left mine in. The pegs with the tremolo unit rests on, the were exactly the same size.

    Were the post from the Floyd compatable with the old anchors already in the guitar or did you use the existing Trs II posts with the Floyd block?
