Need a Bailey spindle

Looking for a good used Bailey spindle (tapered snout), or if anybody has a trick for tightening up the fit on my existing unit so the snout doesn't spin when I try to set the bearing preload, that would work too...

Jim, if your spindle is spinning inside the knuckle, I wouldn't even run it because it's on its way out. Just call Bailey or Red Dawg Racing and order a new one.

I pretty much figured that was the case, Pat, just thought I'd see if someone had a "miracle cure"; if somebody doesn't offer up a good spare in a couple of days I will be making that call.
