Does anyone know of a source for parts for the side folder brace? I’m looking for the screw that attaches the cuff to the strut, and the mounting/pivoting bracket.

I have a Sig contour brace that needs help. The screw that holds the strut to the hinge stripped the torx head (it loosened up and I tried to take it apart to clean it up and reassemble with loctite it but stripped it) and I started drilling out the bolt head but didn't finish. I can maybe finish the job and get it all apart if you want the hinge and the cuff thumb screw. Or maybe send you the whole thing to mess with.

OK I drilled it out and got the hinge off. No idea how to get the bolt stub out of the strut though.

Send an email if you want the hinge and the rear screw.

Heat gun to break the loctite or whatever they put on this thing just starts to damage the strut. Cutting a slot with a cutoff wheel and using a flat blade screwdriver doesn't help much against the thread locker. Can't believe they aren't made of metal given what Sig charges for them. Oh well, the salvaged parts are fine...

Sorry for the delay, young tried to kill me with a stomach bug from daycare. If you’re still inclined to get rid of the parts I’ll see what I can do.

Emails exchanged...

A big thank you to lefty sig! Parts arrived today. Now to experiment and see what I want to go with.
