Trying to replace ancient bifold door top roller

Top roller for lauan hollow-core bifold closet door (maybe as old as 1960) is so worn out I can't even tell what the roller diameter once was. It once had a spring which is now missing. No brand or number markings on door or hardware. The slot in the track is only 1/2" wide and the inside width of the track looks like about 5/8" wide so a standard 7/8" diameter roller won't fit. Can you recommend a replacement roller? If not, would a pivot pin like the #23-115 work? Or should I just replace track and all the door hardware with modern ones? Thanks.

Hello,
Take a look at the 23-266 pivot guide, which has a 7/16" nylon cap. Review the specifications below and see what you think. Thanks for posting!
