1986 Sharp vcr model VC6847U rubber wheel
The wheel that moves left or right to turn tape is hardened and cracked. Where do i look for a replacement?

You could try rubber rejuvinator or just get the dimensions and buy a new tire. Parts are getting hard to come by!

Tire for VA63, is that it?

I believe so. ST1.016. Measure yours before ordering it!

In the past I have just used a standard o-ring to replace the idler tire. This doesn't work on all VCRs but on ones it does the VCR works fine. Idler tires and parts are getting hard to find which is expected as there is not enough demand any more which I don't like but this true for all old obsolete things I'm afraid.

If the outer part is rubber on a plastic wheel I've taken the rubber off and wrapped some sewing thread in the groove to fatten up the diameter and slipped the rubber tire back on. Works OK if you're in a bind. I think the last one I done this to was a Quasar (Panasonic) top loader circa 1983. FF / RWD idler wheel.
