The mod would be wonderful to hear about! My center diff lock is inop thanks 
to one of the nipples being broken off. I've tried a few different epoxys 
and a few superglues and nothing will hold. I've got some modeling cement to 
try, but I'm not optimistic about it.

If nobody comes up with a mod for that Merc part then anybody have any glue 
ideas for me to try? I've been using a straw from a brake clean can to hold 
the niple still and centered until dry. The glue just plain wont stick to 
the plastic kinda like it has mold release on it, but I've cleaned plenty.
