Should I try to re-glue to the shaft somehow? I can't find any diagrams online to see if this is normal.
Thanks!
Without good pics its hard to say. The drive is completely rebuildable, but the cost of rebuilding the old style unit verses buying the New and much improved V2 mirage drive may be similar.

-At the least your cables are probably stretched to the max. These cables are what creates the balanced tension to hold the drive together, around $100. if you add in pulleys, sprockets, axles, fins, you would be past the cost of a new drive and still have the old model.

-The new drives are smooth and very efficient, with all the bugs worked out.
