As far as the leadscrew reverse is concerned maybe you’ll have to manage without it for a while. It’s nice to have but not essential. Lots of decent lathes don’t have that facility.
If you do decide to remove the main spindle it’s not that big a job, nothing really to worry about.
Have you run the machine yet ? What sort of surface finish are you getting ? Maybe the spindle will have to come out anyway if the bearings aren’t in great shape.
