Fixing Pit Boss 1

[WildJoe91]

I recently had my pit bosses snap in half on me, I was going to follow a guide by btw73 to repair it, but the initial superglue that i used before dremeling snapped, I tried to clean off the glue residue and seem to have overdone it, as they don't fit together neatly anymore. does anyone have any advice?

Wow! Intriqued as to how you managed that! Suggest reaching to out someone like @Bonz-1 or @zwc0442

I don’t know whether O matter is ABS plastic? If you plastic welding repair like they do for Motorcycle fairing’s and then filling & sanding & painting to make good.

Depending on cost if the custom guys cannot assist you may be better served just buying another frame?

They were in my hoodie pocket along with another pair and my wallet, I think when I got out of my car they got pressed into my steering wheel and snapped.

Sell the plates. Those are hard to come by.

If these were a standard pair of pit boss, I'd probably just do that and get a new pair down the line, but these are the tron version, so I want to do everything I can first before i give up

What coincidence, I happened to come across this video today. Probably a good idea to try the hack on a cheap frame first before putting your Tron under the scalpel!
