Bought me a gearbox but where the roll pin should go through there is what looks like metal that has been melted and set (like solder or something)

Have tried everything, smashing drilling crying lol.

Now have sore knuckles and am losing patients.

Any ideas?

ended up getting a jb3 anywayas willy ones are rocking horse waste and the money factor.

Dont really want to get a new one as i paid a bit for this one and it has very low milage.

Will get some new bits today i recon.

It would be fine to run without a roll pin.
