Replacing the wheel of 23-043 with 81-228

A quick learner from Rescue, CA says:

The wheel looks identical to the one used by the 23-043 assembly.
I'm fairly confident I can drill out or grind of the rivet holding the existing damaged wheel.
Do you sell a male/female shoulder bolt or a replacement rivet for the 81-228 wheel?
Thanks, Don

Thank you for posting, Don. To be honest, we highly recommend that you replace the full roller when the wheel has worn down. There is a lot of risk involved with trying to replace the full wheel, and there is a good chance you could damage the housing.

That said, we do not have a replacement rivet for this roller, but you could take a look at our 81-303 and 81-304 axles to see if you might be able to use them.

Again, I recommend that you replace the entire roller.
