OK - first fly in the ointment
The casting on the new yoke is thicker where it bolts to the saddle. The extra mass prevents the yoke being installed. I'm not sure what other mills are like but on the Kondia, the Y axis nut goes in 90° out of alignment and it then rotated so it can be fitted correctly. The new nut cannot be rotated.
Looks like I need to get it milled or bust out the angle grinder...
