Vintage craftsman vise

Hello
New to the Forum
I need to replace the spindle nut on my model 5163
I've goggled and found nothing
My micro mill/lathe is too small for this part
Any assistance is appreciated

Hey I’ve got one. That should be 4 1/2 jaw width?

If Rusty's nice offer doesn't work out for you, PM me. I have a guy in MA that machined me a nut for a rare old vise I have. Excellent work and reasonably priced. I can at least give you his info.

Well the nut isn’t in as good as shape as I thought it was in but if you want it I’ll sell it for $10 plus shipping if not it’s totally fine. It came from a working vise with a straight main screw handle so I figured it was fine but still functional. But has been repaired and is worn but still does function and it is the nut your looking for. Once again if you don’t want it no big deal. I just was trying to provide parts just Incase.
