Considering Jet 16-42 EVS

I currently have a Jet Mini and am considering stepping up to the Jet 16-42 EVS when Wood craft has their 15% off after Thanksgiving. I know the spindle threads are different so I need an adapter, but does anyone know if the tool rest posts are the same diameter? I bought the Oneway tool rest straight, inside and outside rests for bowl turning and would like to know if the post diameters are different for the bigger lathe before I purchase? Thank you.

The tool rests posts on the mini are 5/8" I think. The 1642 has 1" tool post.
