Hey there, troops!

I have a chance at a cheap X-88; you. know it… yeah, that’s right… the one with the disintegrating 3 point bridge!!

Which is in the process of disintegrating as we speak!!

Now I know that there is a fix for this, i.e. a replacement, but for the life of me I cannot remember what it is, so a little help would be much appreciated!!
