Kitchen drawer runner

[gigz]

Got this drawer unit from Tecaz about ten yrs ago. The wheels fell off and the hole is enlarged so wheel won't go back in. Tecaz want £175 (x 2 as another drawer is the same). Is there a repair kit or another way to fix this without spending £300 ?

Pictue of the wheel would help to provide a solution.

Does the wheel have a bearing in the centre ?

If it does then the wheel can be re-attached using a bolt, nut and washers.

The washer between bearing and panel must be thick enough to ensure teh wheel does not rub against the panel.

If there is no bearing in the wheel then replace the wheel with a bearing the same size as the wheel. Last time I did this for a friend the bearing cost less than a fiver.
