John: Its a great project you are heading into - let us know how it progresses.
I personally wouldn't mind if we go Lenco on the TTS-8000 - thereby meaning that if improvements or new parts to the bearing can be made, it will only extend the lifespan of our TTS-8000's.

it would appear that the spindle cast tube that the oilite bearing sit in is not blind,in the photo you can clearly see the other side of the white delrin thrust pad,its got some sealer/glue around its edge but id say looking at the slots it just screws in.
this does mean that it could be possible to safely press out and press in new oilite bearings
