Slide Diver help

Post by striper192001 »

I was attempting to set a slide diver and it came apart. I thought I broke it but it looks like the piece snaps in but I cant seem to. I was looking at another brand new one still in its package trying to figure it out when the same thing happened to that one also. Does it snap back in? Has this happened to anyone else ? I have the clear slide diver. Help !

It was a middle part that came off. The part that holds rear release I believe.......?

Nope no fix for that. Since it's broken you may want to consider a lite bight version. Sucks towing perch around all day. Good luck!!!

It's broken..... Might be able to fix it with proper glue or soldering iron, or contact company for a replacement.

Update..........that part pops back in. Anyone that has this issue, just use a straight screwdriver from one side to pop it in.........thanks for all the help !
