Tug and Grind?

Quoted from Black_Knight:

Try the JB, how can it hurt?

It will probably fall out and jam up some other mech or relay.

Always better to make the proper repair and know it will last forever, rather than always waiting for the crap repair to fail.

Quoted from Black_Knight:

The correct repair would be to replace the part.

If it was 1975, I'd just ring up my local Bally distributor and have the part waiting in will-call with the rest of my weekly order.

But in 2018, if PBR does not have it, then a TIG repair might have to do.

And, of course, the TIG repair area could well be harder than the original soft steel. I've welded Italian pop bumper brackets back together that will never break again, ever, lol.
