Update: the Walker Turner Facebook group pointed me to Jeff at the Walker Turner Serviced Machinery company who has been a huge help...

I ordered 6202-5/8-2RS on Amazon and they will be here tomorrow. I’ll let you know how it goes, thanks again.

Thank you both, I just measured the spindle and it’s .5965 or 15.15 mm.

6202-5/8 is quite common. I bought dozens of these for Craftsman machines. What does your spindle measure?

Thank you Frank, I’m hoping to get some time tomorrow night to do some more. Thanks again for all the help.
