Which EB 8800 part?

Hi all,

I have an EB 8800 on the bench and the third wheel has broken.

I see from the service sheet that this piece comes in two flavors.

But I don't know which one I need.  Cousins have them both in stock and listed as...

Third Wheel ( 210 ), EB 8800

Third Wheel, Upper Conical Pivot ( 217 ), EB 8800

 

Any ideas how I could find out?  I would hazard a guess that I need 217 as the remaining pivot I can see has a conical end?

 

Many thanks,

Ash.

Yeah, I thought the pivot was broken, it looks a bit short.  I will use this broken part to practice on.  Not to derail my original question, but by peen do you mean hit it with a staking set to close the hole a little?  If so, which stake would you use?

The hole looks shagged to me and will likely turn untrue if just closed with a stake. 
 

I think you may need the cone bearing type as it’s unjewelled - check the remaining original pivot to confirm the profile of the tip.

    • Hi. In the picture not only does it depict that the wheel is bent but also the plate or is that due to th angle of the picture.  Already received very good advise so I will butt out.
