I know the best solution to the carrier plate is a new properly heat treated replacement, but could brazing the shaft and carrier together overcome the problem? This might help if the spacing issue agravates the carrier wipe out.
A good 16% silver brazing rod and the proper flux should penetrate well. What woud taking the carrier and shaft up to 1300 - 1400 F do to the hardness? Water quench after?
