This is a possibility, how long would this buy me? It seems like I could get another year out of this thing if I did it right.

Is there anything online about performing this trick properly? I'm intrigued and my buddy will probably help me do the re-drill. What type of epoxy?

Also, when you say "new", should I buy a new balancer or a used one?
