Fixing loose Lionel rotating bearing caps | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

My apologies if this has been answered before... but some of the caps on my Husky Stack cars keep falling off. Is there a way to fix this permanently? This was out of the box, never been run. Should I contact Lionel Customer Service?

If you got real strong hands, if you squeeze both sides in your hand at the same time...they will stay on.

Or turn the truck on its side, on top of a towel or piece of foam, give a soft tap with small hammer. They just need pressed on further.

Great info. Do you have any tips for finding the one that just fell off on my layout? Are they available as replacement parts?

Thanks
