Loose winch

[Mouldz]

My L&M shockwaves reel winch is loose ,the whole thing has movement from side to side,i thought of screwing a small screw through the back,or pop rivet,to stop it,i really dont want to strip the rod,any suggestions

U could do it with the old fibreglass rods, dunno if its such a good idea with graphite.

thanx ,but I stripped the old rubber grip off and put some glue between it and rod and then replace the grip with some boat carpet,I prefer the carpet to the normal rubber/sponge grips
