I was setting up to do a counter bore last night and noticed I needed to tram my mill up again after moving it and adjusting the workbench it is on. While tramming, I found a ~0.009" axial wobble in the spindle. The wobble is present at the bottom of the spindle and the top of the spindle. I was able to mark the high and low points of the wobble. I will take some photos tonight.

I think I have to pull the spindle and bearings to correct this, any other suggestions?
