    So this just happened, I'm not 100% sure it's the correct part name and please correct me if I'm wrong but I believe my spindle gusset just sheared and looking for recommendations for a replacement part.20190905_011320.jpg 20190905_011308.jpg

    So the broken part is called a spindle then? What does it mean to "Gusset" it?
