KV-1 tank

Just recieved my KV-1 tank from a supplier in the states. I noticed that the front sprocket had broken off from the plastic chassis. Does anyone have any ideas on a fix for this as I live in a remote area of Canada and the cost to send it back isn't a really viable option.

It is a weak point and often come loose or break.

Can you upload some pictures so we can see where it broke so can recommend something.

Hi there I am new to the forum so posting a pic may take awhile. It's where the axle would come off from the chassis. I was wondering about a screw from the inside . Drill the plastic axle and a small piece of flat aluminum for backing and screw it on from the inside.Epoxy wont work I don't think.
