4-jaw chuck for TSL-800D

I have the same lathe, but no 4 jaw. Oddly enough, I met a guy a half mile away who also has a TSL-800D, and he loaned me his 4 jaw. It’s been a couple years now.

1). Yes
2). Dunno.

I also found a 12” A1-5 faceplate for $65. Seemed like an OK deal.
 
I have a TSL-800 and two Bison chucks, a "tru-align" 3-jaw that uses an A2-5 adapter, and a 4-jaw with a built in A2-5 mount. What's a little annoying is that the 3-jaw doesn't come with the A2-5 mount built in, because removing it means removing the chuck first and then the adapter. Because of this, when it's reinstalled, it has to be dialed in again. Would seem like the 4-jaw should have had the adapter and not the 3-jaw, but what do I know.

Ended up finding a used Gator 4-jaw with the built-in A2-5 mount. Fit perfect. Seats within a thousandth. Thanks everyone for the info.
