End link mounting tab snapped off of Stagg SHS strut

[sneakypete]

Just like the title says, one of the mounting brackets snapped off of one of my Staggs. It did not snap all of the way off, but the bolt hole part snapped in half (half remains on the strut, and the other half is still sandwiched between the bolt and washer on the end link).

Does anybody have experience making warranty claims through Stagg? Or is it possible to have a shop repair the tab?

Bump. Anyone? I haven't gotten a response to my e-mail to Stagg, and their voicemail had no outgoing message. I am not feeling optimistic.

replace it i dont thing welding it back on would have the same strength it had in the beginning

Yeah I am replacing it. The ebay vendor is sending me a new strut to satisfy my warranty claim.
