My Dog Broke An Element Off My PDL-2....

Anyone know where to get a new element?

I was working on it and I left it for a few seconds and he went over and got tangled in the wire.
 

They do not have the right size.
I need the end element that slides out....its 4ft x 1/2 inch od with a pinched end with a screw hole for the back door wire.
 
I was just talking to a local on the CB and he said that new aluminum tubing is not anywhere near the quality of the old aluminum tubing....he just fabbed a PDL-4 and said that the new stuff will split when you crimp the ends....but I have no choice so I will give it a try.
 
he's wrong about the splitting . i haven't had any problems what so ever with any DXengineering tubing i have gotten . i've used their 1/2 inch , 5/8 inch and 1 through 1 5/8 tubing with no splitting or cracking or any other problem .

the only thing is they require a $20 minimum order S&H not included . and 6 ft stuff starts about $18 just for shipping .

for one section id try texas towers . they might not have a minimum order requirement .
