Ok---I have read all the repair possibilities----and then I went to Home
Depot.

I wandered over to the shower door hardware display, and all that was
there was flat non grooved wheels----no good.

I looked to my left and see another display with bi-fold door
hardware--ah-ha !!

I bought a package of bi-fold door top pivot's, which are nylon tube's,
with a raised collar about in the middle of it.

Picked up some 10-32 screw's, star lock washer's, and some #10 flat
washer's, and some nut's---

I cut the pivot, right behind the collar, with a razor saw, and cut the
remaining tube to about 1/4 ".

I drilled out the old wheel set-up, from the arms, and simply attatched
the nylon tube  to the arms---

The tube portion rides inside the track, alost like it was made for
it---no slop, and the collar portion is on the outside of the track.

Kinda like a T
The stem of the T goes to the arms, the top part or the flat is outside
of the track---
Kinda like the teflon tube with a washer on the outside--but this is all
one piece.

Bullet proof--works good, should last for a long time--

Thanks to all of you for the input, and idea's----

Later,

Terry

 I was told to epoxy on buttons. Worked but they wear quickly.

Subject: Skylight Lift Mechanism
Ok, all of you late model Westfalia Owner's --this is in regards to the
lift set up, and the broken roller's, or wheels, on the end's of the
arms for the skylight----
Has any one come up with a repair-- or better set-up, short of replacing
the whole unit?
Just curious--I have it out right this second, and am trying to
determine what to do----the wheels are plum worn down to the nubs----
Later,
