I think you should, if I remember right his price was reasonable. I even thought about buying them just to have as a spare in case I ever needed them. 2 years ago Grizzly, who now owns whats left of south bend was selling them for $700.00!!!
Those bearings llok nice! You better snatched them up, they don't come along often. New used bearings, new shims, polish the spindle, and she will be good as new and run like a dream.
The eBay shim packs work good , I had to pull .004 off each pack and got it in spec. They were a little long : rubbed on thrust bearing: I ground a little off .
You need new spindle bearings as Greg states.
Chuck Did you find your take up nut ?.
It's coming along nice. One day I will get mine back together...
