removing the cable from the backing plate, the threaded casting area

off a section! :-( I looked at the piece and noticed green loctite (stud
and
bearing grade). Obviously, the previous owner did this cute repair
job.I'm
glad I discovered this now, instead of when pulling on the brake lever
going
down the road! I don't want to weld it back up, but will do so if need
be........I'd prefer to pick up another backing plate. Anyone have a
spare
out there collecting dust?? Thanks.
