Sloppy door controls

The post is wallowed out - can the mechanism be tightened up, or do I take my chances with the $15 aftermarket part?

The aftermarket part is high quality, just buy new ones.

There used to be repair kits for them but I think they are pretty much all gone now. I guess it's find a good used one or try the repops....
