I do have a manual that details how to remove the spindle and replace bearings, but they basically say you need to replace the spindle as a complete unit and not change bearings. Also, I'd rather not have to remove the entire quill and send it and the spindle in for grinding unless I absolutely have to. The down time would most likey be more than the cost to have someone out to regrind the taper. I am still at a loss as to what bearings to order. I dug the old spindle out of storage today and will post the numbers I find on the bearings (if I find any) tomorrow.
