You can use almost any socket. The only difference in Zenith
sockets I ever found is lead length & push on connectors.
The tripler has been changed & focus divider deleted. If you change
it back USE OEM. IIRC the divider is NOT the common 800-616 kit.
Check with someone with a parts book for subs. IIRC its 63-9898
but its been years.
Here is the scenario...
One or more caps opened & the HV & focus went up. That
caused the socket to arc, the divider to crack or melt then
finally the tripler to burn or open. A butcher moused the set
but left it with bad caps so it happend again. Now odds are the
tripler is gone again.

I don't remember seeing a value on the replacement caps, only a Zenith part number. IIRC, they were a carefully selected value, with a close tolerance.
I never subbed Zenith HV parts, as Zenith had one of the oldest and best distributors located in Milwaukee. It was very seldom, that they had to order anything. Their stocks were that complete!
