I've used "cones" like that before, but I have no idea where you could find a replacement. Nothing came up on ebay. Are there any other bike shops relatively nearby? Sometimes it's worth going that extra mile if you really need the part. Those seem like a good deal for $50, and if you can get them running again for another $5 plus gas money I'd say it's worth it.

I think this would work, from the looks of it you'd need to remove the bearing to thread on the inside nut, and you'd need to somehow get it perfectly in position before putting the bearing back in. I don't think any nut would fit in the gap between the bearing and axle.
