Greetings, and thank you for allowing me to participate on this great site.
I have a Craftsman Commercial (re-branded Atlas) lathe which I believe dates from the 1970s.
The headstock (spindle) carrier bearings have gotten very noisy and I would like to replace them. Clausing shows them as still available - at a price tag $350 and $150, for the two bearings. Yikes!
I wondered if anyone has an interchange number from either Timken or SKF, or any other bearing manufacturer, before I take the headstock apart and get some measurements. Clausing's part numbers are 045-026 and 045-027.
Any help and advice would be appreciated.
