06 Apex rail

[Jackhamrr]

I lost one of the front plastic pieces on a rail.
I bought the sled used last year and they were both very 'floppy'. The left side hole is now ripped out of the rail and the other is very oblonged, near ripping out also. The rest of the rail is good condition.
My question is... Can the rail be welded and redrilled? And if so should the plastic tips be solid or are the supposed to 'float'?

I just found an old thread where someone used JB Weld then silicone tip to rail for same issue.
Would cold weld be better?

Mine both wiggled all the way the way to 14k miles but can’t help as never fixed them

I drilled mine out with the loose rivets and bolted them on with nylock nuts , they were very floppy
I would try some jb weld in the hole , then drill it and bolt it ?

Not available for the 121 rail I believe. (I didn't mention it's a 121) Have had great experiences with BOP though.
