I have problems with the side panel posts breaking off. This has happened twice, this time I fixed it.











Used the brake cleaner to remove any grease or oil for a good bond. Just a couple of drops and all better. Letting it set up over night before reinstalling it. Easy and fast.
Hope this helps someone else.

It would help more if you came over and fixed them for me


When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

That would help if I could find the one that broke off.
