Is the table carriage the same for an Mark V 500 as a Mark V 510.

What I want to do is take a Mark V 510 table and carriage and put it in place of a Mark V carriage. Without taking off the head stock and switching out carriages.

I want the Mark V 510 table handle wheel and 510 table. but in a 500 carriage.
thanks

That won't work.
The table posts on the 510/520 tables are farther apart than the 500 posts, The carriages are not interchangeable,
