Just spoke to one buddy and he said there was a guy in the city that rebuilds them.  He got him to do the one on his GN.

At least we know where to send them. :)

I had 2 welded & they both broke with installation so I vote No!  :068:

Would freeing up the tube in the broken ear help in not breaking it again ?
just about every one that i have seen broken has the pin crushed and the nut sitting on the body.
mine has been broken for a very long time, i have been contemplating on having it welded, IF i do get it welded i WILL loosen the pin some how  (but not too much) in hopes of not breaking it again.
Most talk about having thick skin but thats just BS.
This damn attitude of "you didn't listen to us/me now you should burn in hell for it" really sucks.
