I have 101.07301 Atlas / Craftsman lathe from the early

I'm uncertain which part of the back gear the noise is
coming from.? Is anyone familiar with this problem?? Also
when I tried to disengage the back gear I couldn't get the
pin to go in.? I can move the pin so it's not seized.? Is
the any trick to get the pin to seat in the front gear or
do I need to take apart the spindle?
A common problem is that the bushings in the pulley get worn
when run without putting oil in the oil hole buried in the
bottom of one of the pulley grooves.
