Help with LifeLike SD7 axis
#1
I have an old Lifelike MILW SD7 #2209 with all axis cracked. The "standard" Lifelike replacement axis part # 584 408 does not fit.

The left one are the well known Lifelike axis I have in all my Lifelike GP etc. It is part # 584 408.
The center one is the one I am looking for. Is there a known part number I can ask Walthers for or scan ebay?
(The right one is for reference only an Athern axis with a larger gearwheel)

Athearn axle gears are a direct replacement for the LifeLike ones (which are no longer available from Walthers).

I am sorry, I forgot to post the outcome.

Proto/Walthers part # 922-584752 is the correct one. It looks like it is out of production (Walthers service could not provide any source) but one German dealer had still some on stock. The old lady is is good shape gain and runs a quick as a teenager on the rails again 357
