Get some 7/16"x3" (or thereabouts) steel stock and make 
spanner platforms for each leg, attaching to the dolly leg in 
the center of each. A bolt threaded into the steel on each end 
of each spanner, pointing up, can go into the caster socket to 
corral the legs at a considerably lower cost than replacing 
the legs. It's amazing to me that leg replacement is even 
entertained, considering the list volume generated on 
reversibility of any minute deviation from the sacred 
ancestral morphology. Or is that just in the ultra holy artifacts?
