In Response To: Outriger repair-able? (STeveZ)

Steve, I wouldn't try to weld repair it, you can cut both sides of the break with a tubing cutter and put a very tight fitting sleeve inside and slide them together. If it still feels loose, put a few punch dimples at the joint line on either side. It won't be as pretty as new ones, and will be about an inch shorter, but it's a cheap fix and will work fine, I know, I've done it.
