Duoglide footboard RR stud 50655-58A

I foolishly broke my right rear footboard stud, and am having a relativley hard time finding another. Have checked Old Dude, NOS parts, Antique Cycle Supply, AAOK, 45Parts Depot. No one seems to have a stock stud, only the skinny chrome aftermarkets sets. Colony only seems to make them for the rigids. Have I missed a good source to check with?

Yeah , I was waiting for that question. I thought my stud had a "wave" to it that kept the floorboard from going on right. I remember a post on here where someone basically said hydraulic presses were good for doing (bad) things like this... Little did I know the stud was hardened. It literally exploded from under the press, just as I thought I had it "straight"
The two pieces don't quite fit back together right, I think a little material is missing...

Weld it back together and run it. Stay away from them big ol presses. That particular piece does in fact have a slight tweek in it....bosheff
