Default Re: Dixi Brake Drum Lathe questions

I will contradict my Brother on the seal, the Barrett adapter fits with the seal, it has a shoulder that rests against the snap ring,or the bearing, he only saw me use it without the seal.

I don't know about how the arbor is on the Dixie, the barrett has a stepped arbor, and it has a sleeve to adapt the smaller diameter to the larger adapters, the larger arbor size is 1"---same as AAmco, also some manufactures would make almost the same piece of equipment for several names, my Barrett has a John Beam brand label.
