    Moogie on ebay has those from time to time.
    Grounds, Grounds, Grounds Replace them things.
    Divorces, Great Coffee, and Electrics, all start with GOOD Grounds.
    Where are my grounds ?

    You could also use a simply hose clamp from the hardware store. That's how I fixed mine last year and have had no problems since. The cage was still intact; my rubber seal had cracked and broken off allowing the bearing cage to slide down the column and cause an up/down wobble. Quick, easy, cheap fix.
