Keith:
	If I am correct, these have a brass ferrule at the bottom, with the
caster integral with it.  I also needed to replace a set some time ago. 
It's been a while, but I remember being able to remove the caster from
the brass ferrule, and drill the ferrule large enough for a caster from
a supply house.  I believe there were four screws on the bottom of the
brass piece holding it in place.  I drilled out the bottom of the leg
for the plastic insert which was supplied with the caster.  I can't
remember whether the insert was installed before or after the ferrule,
but it worked well and looked great.
	Good luck!
