Does anybody have a spare one of these in decent shape?
Mine snapped after removing the spare for inspection.

I moved my spare to the back and should have mine kicking around somewhere. I'll look tomorrow and let you know if I find it.

I havent looked closely at one, but from the pic can you not soak it in penetrating fluid, knock the bolt out and replace it?

I'm sure one of the shops like CCA or CVI would have one or two kicking around...

Can I?
I assumed it's one piece.
I'll take a closer look tomorrow.

I have no idea! But from the pic the bolt looks like its dropped through a sleeve. Probably very siezed but doesnt look welded?

it is a drop-in polt, but the part of the thread in the hook is so seized, I'm not sure if I can get it out. Had it soaking in wd for a couple days, may need to weld on a bolt head to move it, maybe heat it up too...

May have to call Mardy or Japanoid or something. Someone must have one from all the junked L300's they have

Can't just go to Fastnel or Acklands and buy a new bolt? If the old one is rusted in put the hook in a vice, heat the part up w/ a torch and turn the bolt out w/ vice grips.

If you haven't found one yet, let me know. I have one that could be pulled out. Cost of shipping (plus perhaps coffee money) is all I ask out of N Alberta.

O.M.G.

Lol
I've logged into Delica.ca for the first time in a loooooong time, and came across this post.
What's hilarious is that I just got a '16 Outlander, and I had EXACT same issue with the hanger!
Lol

Ended up buying o
A new one from eBay for a few bucks...lol
