bgsengine wrote:welding probably won't do the trick, unless you can weld it in place after everything's assembled - weld will not bend (or the metal around it may bend) unless you are able to heat treat and temper the weld afterwards to match the sheet metal... Ive brazed them on a time or two, but the repair is a one-off , later attempts to bend the tangs away for future repairs usually result in the weld or repair breaking off again (as well as distorting the shroud) However if you were able to take two housings with the recoil stamping , and break away the spot welds that hold recoil housing to blower housing, and then weld/braze (or spot weld) the replacement in place, you may have better luck that way..
