I recently acquired a SB 10k. I am in the process of disassembly/ cleaning it. I have the book on renovating the 9, 10k which everyone recommends and it has really helped. I've been hesitant to ask this because I've been unable to find any type of reference to it which usually means, at least in my experience, that the answer is so obvious no one has ever bothered writing it down.
So here it goes... I am getting ready to tackle the headstock. All the youtube videos, SB literature, this forum and even the book I am using state that when you are determining what adjustment the bearings need, to pull up on a bar inserted through the spindle with a force of 75 lbs but none of them explain how you know when you reached 75lbs. In other words, I wouldn't know 75 lbs force from 175 lbs force other than one is more than the other. Is there some type of measuring device that would indicate that similar to a torque wrench??
