chair swivel pedestal replacement

the bearings in my sofa chair swivel have all fallen out. Does anyone know where to get a swivel replacement as opposed to having to buy a whole new chair?

    Just might get a piece of junk.
  • Don't know what your swivel bearing is like, but I've seen lazy susan type bearings in hardware stores.

  • You need to learn to google. Try "swivel chair parts" many sites for replacement parts.
  • Not sure without seeing it. Perhaps a swivel base from a boat seat found at a marine supply?
  • Will something like this work? Boat seat swivel.
