Hi all
Is it possible to repair a broken side stud? Looks like I just drill out the slug and press the stud/mount out. Seems easy enough. Where could I buy a new stud? Or do they even sell them?
A new/used passenger arm is selling for half a Benjamin on eBay so I’d like to repair this if I could. Thanks!

Never mind I got it. I had another arm around and sacrificed it buy cutting out the stud. I was able to clamp the broken stud in a vise and “wiggle” it out. I filed the new stud down a bit to get it started and gently hammered it the rest of the way in. Checking for squareness as I was working so it wouldn’t end up being cockeyed.
Maybe this will help someone else.
Thanks
