Vintage Industrial Ladder - Adding Casters?

[pancholasvegas]

Hey All,

Been on the hunt for a nice stepladder for use in the shop, picked up a pretty nice example from a buddy, exactly the same as the one in the photo.



You can see the (4) posts that the casters would fit into. I believe these to have been spring loaded, as there is still a spring remaining stuck to one of the posts on the bottom side. Each post is 3-5/8” tall. I’m having trouble finding what the correct, or most suitable castor / spring setup to use on this. In case it isn’t obvious, the ladder needs to be immobile once weight is applied, but roll when not in use.

Edit: For clarification, I have the same ladder as in the photo. Looking to add the correct style caster / spring setup, for a reasonable price. Have access to MIG/TIG as necessary.

Any ideas from the collective here?

Edited to add that I am not looking for a ladder, I already have one, same as in the photo. Looking to add the correct casters, on a reasonable budget. Thank you though.
