What trackball to use for 60 in 1 from jammaparts.net?

I bought the 60 in 1 board from jammaparts.net. Board works great, this is my third one.
Problem is this is my first trackball install.
I tried the original Centipede trackball with a borrowed harness (from a World Class Bowling) plugged into the con3 port. Nothing happens. I read up that the Centipede trackball is not compatible.
Where can I get a 2 1/4" trackball w/ harness that will work for the 60 in 1?

I understand I can buy the 2 red X Y boards and a harness from Bob Roberts. Should I go that route?
These the correct parts?
Atari TB optic board A052-1010/1 $20.00
60-IN-1 Trackball Interface Harness $11.00

My trackball also needs a new ball. I was just thinking a whole new trackball would be easier.

Just buy an entire new trackball. This way you are certain it will work and you get new bearings/rollers and a new ball. That 6 pin harness will speed things up connecting it to the board.
