Hi all, new here and this is my first post. Thanks in advance for any help! We have a Lucas horizontal floor mill that has went down on us. It is a model 41B2620, 4" spindle with what I am assuming is a NMTB taper. Very similar to CAT or BT but with a staight shoulder beyond the taper on the tooling. My problem is that our power draw system has went down and we are looking at 15-$20,000 to rebuild it through Lucas. I dont think we paid that for the machine. Is it feasible to replace the spindle we have with a morse taper spindle? I havent had much luck finding used parts or any comments by someone who has done something like this before. Again thanks in advance for any and all help
