Default DeWalt DW733 planer *thunk* - update & question

As to my original question...shouldn't the spindle/rollers be replaced
with new ones as well? I always thought it was better to replace both
co-joining parts rather than half?


Maybe, maybe not. Inspect them; if the bushings are soft and the
spindle axles are hard the wear in the axles is probably insignificant.
W/O looking, I'd guess it's at least 50:50 if you went that far you
could just about replace the planer for the same price.
