Since JMech is watching this thread with great interest I will forward some of his advice on this topic.

"Rebuilding the KKD-7505 spindle should never be attempted by anyone smarter than a box of hammers. If you don't value your time and money at all we can't stop you, but we tried. With your poor judgment, you should join the JD forum and volunteer as a moderator. The money you thought you would save will go a long way toward the noise canceling headphones you're going to need when those jacked up spindles start singing like a heartbroken chainsaw."

First step to rebuilding these spindles is to come in out of the rain. Then get a small chisel, gouge out one of the seals and throw it in the trash. Use a piece of tie wire with a little hook on the end to pull the plastic cage straight out. The cages are very sturdy and flexible. I pulled out six and they all seemed fine.
