About 10 yrs ago I had to rebuild the GB on a then recently acquired 10K double tumbler.
The shafts had wallered out the bores in the CI box to where they would jam or jump teeth at one end.
It was necessary to strip the box, find where the centers should have been, rebore the holes and put in bronze bushings.
Re-felted everything as it was re-assembled
I can't remember the details, but the box is not complex. Most important thing is take photos, add tags or magic marker, and keep things in order, wired together if it helps.
One thing I did, instead of making new shafts, I turned the ripped up ends down to clean, and polished them. Then when making the new bronze bushings, I merely bored the bushings to the new journal sizes. That saved a ton of work over making new shafts, and I am confident that the lathe that lasted 40 yrs of grimey daily use in the local Shepherd-Niles over head crane plant will function for several more generations at my rate of use without a gearbox problem unless it is crashed.
