I'm going to pull mine apart to restore them. From what I can see their spot welded together. You can seperate them into there seperate pieces, do the repairs and weld them back together.
I think that Indian have repair sections for drop gates that they get custom made in small numbers. I've seen them un-pick the welds on gates before, guess that is what makes it time consuming as too much heat must bend them out of shape.
They also use a Magnabender to fold them too. Not that you can get one of them at Supacheap...try yer local high school metal shop...
