Good morning all
Bill .I don't know what you have as far as ball bearings company's around you,
but I know that there are thousands of ball bearings sets and stiles out
there, you should be able to find something to fit the bill?
I would first try to true up the old head stock shaft , have it turned on a
lathe to remove any and all warpage that may have happened due to the fire,
then go to a ball bearing company to see what that have.
Another idea is to call Legacy and see if they will sell you a new ball bearing
set to replace the old one lost in the fire?
A third idea here is to pore a Babbitt for the head stock your self ?
I wish you luck, getting your machine back together. I know it will happen, the
only questions, that I see are,How and When. ;-)
Have a good day.
C.A.G.

Ok, my second best guess would be the 09074 bearing with a 09194 race.
Timken brand. The od is 1.938" and the width of the cup (race) would be
.6875".
I'm positive about the other bearing.

sorry I cant confirm the bearing numbers they are too far gone to read
anything
but the sizes of the tapered bearing are ID .748 OD 1.935
the other bearing ID 1.000 and OD 2.045
these sizes might be out by 1or 2 thousands because of all the heat they
have been through
here is pics comparing the 2 different headstocks you were correct as
usual Tim :)

Curt, the larger bearing is a pillow block style bearing ( CSB 205-16 )
but it uses a Legacy laser cut mount instead of the standard pillow block. The
tapered bearing (can't find the numbers for the race and bearing at this moment
) also has a custom mount. Bill can you confirm if the tapered bearing is a
LM11949/LM11910? The bore id is .750", od 1.781" and the width is .655".
There's differences between the spindles on the two machines as well as
the height of the headstock units. I'd love to get specific, but I can't find
my notes on this and it's really bugging me. I also think you will have
clearance issues trying to find a small bearing to work on the standard 900
with the delrin bushings. If you can find bearings to fit the delrin style
headstock that would be a very desirable upgrade.

bearings before
