After an over indulgent Christmas I got back out to the shop this morn. Started assembling the compound on the lathe and realized I could use two proper spanners to set the thrust bearings.
Probably 10 minutes drawing and burning on the plasma table
and there they were. Worked great.
And the lathe is back in good health. The new parts meshed well and the screw turns smooth as glass.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
