I was out for a ride last weekend when my shifter (aluminum Forward Control) sheered the pin connecting it to the rod and I had to reach down and suicide shift my way home. Obviously there is a lot of torque being transferred from the shift arm, along the shaft and then back up the other shift arm. So I bought a small piece of aluminum to fix things up and then bought a stainless bolt to pull everything together. The aluminum I can weld together but is there a way to fuse the aluminum bolt and aluminum rod together?
