Removing plastic gimbal

Hello all,

I have a rod which has 2 lugs broken off the plastic gimbal.

Can anyone offer me a way to remove the old one so as to install a new one.  I have heard dunking the butt into boiling water to soften the epoxy.

 

Thanks in advance

 

Chris

using a linisher or grinder with a sanding disk carefully grind one side away untill your almost to the shaft. This should weaken it enounough to crack it off. Then with a linisher remove th old glue and start again.
