We never repaired them at work, not least because the official DEC

remove the cartridge and replace the leader.

Subject: Re: BA123 Side panels and Stuck TK50
I've bought a pile of drives recently, and may have one that you can
scavenge. However I think mine may be TK-70's though.
Actually mine was a TK70, I *think* the leader is the same in both drives in
any case. If you have a spare that would be nice, but I think I may have a
spare tucked away somewhere anyway. My query was really about whether it was
possible to repair the tear, because one for the tip is not completely torn
off.
