one of the 360 degree boom in my SS bay was damaged. Looks like someone pull it down will a lot of force or got caught in a car. Anyhow I attached two picture of the damage boom and one pic of a normal working one. Can I buy the part that is just damaged which consist of a square plate and shaft? Can't see to find this part in any catalog? I hope I don't have to replaced the whole stainless boom. Can anyone recognized what brand this boom is? It is a spydered type boom.
Broken Boom. Can it be fixed?

I might found something.
I been searching the internet and found a dual boom assembly by Ginsan that has a part that looks like what I need.

Can anyone confirm this is indeed the part I need to replace. Thanks ahead.

That boom does look like the GinSan model - Dralco makes one with the same dimensions that will fit directly in its place.
The spindle is bent too - you'll need to replace the whole thing for it to work right.

Boom plate
I replace these all the time and buy the from Dultmeier Sales. The hard thing about replacing it is the spring tension all you need to do is use a ratchet tie down and hook one end to spring and other to end of boom and pull spring till bolt goes in.

You don't need to take the spring off to remove the boom. Just remove the swivel and the two large nuts at the bottom and the boom will slip right off the spindle.
If the boom comes unassembled, a heavy-duty rachet tie-down will work to put it together.

It is fixed. Thanks all for Help.
Spindle was not bent so I took to a local welder. He charged me only $15. Took him about 15 minutes to fix it. I included before and after pics. The hard put of this ordeal would have been putting the tension spring back on. Thanks to the rachet tie down idea it was not hard but still nerve racketing. I was afraid the rope will break or rachet slipped. Hope someone can learn from the pics. I certainly did. Thanks to forum again.
