I did exactly same thing. That part is expensive you have to buy entire slider unit. When you do get the new one add some grease to the O ring on the keeper and be sure to insert it straight. The grease will let it slide in very easy and come out easy when needed. The grease will not let it fall out after install so don't worry about that.

What part of Alabama are you traveling to? I'm south of Tuscaloosa about 60 miles.

Great place, about 2 1/2 hour ride for me. Not far from Dothan in June will be a kick butt festival going on not sure what weekend, but Randy Owen for the group Alabama along with Hank Williams Jr, LynardSkinnard, and others will be there in concert.

We all got days like that. Some have lives like that. Haven't done anything major to mine yet so I got that to look forward to. Did have a spring and washer on the PMS go heavenward.
