Captive nuts!!
#4
Well, I managed to extract the remains of the bolt, so that leaves the captive nut loose in the arm.
I thought I'd be able to tighten it up by using a bolt a bit to squash the top flange tighter, but can't get enough torque on the bolt as ..... the nut turns. There's just nothing to hold. So I thought I'd try Loctite 600 or something tonight with maybe a bit of a belt with a chisel or something to distort the hole out of round.
After that, I think it's a destruct job, but I'm relauctant to drop it into the arm. Might have to though. <i></i>
