Have you broken the triangular piece, or just broken the tack weld holding the stud on?

If you've just broken the stud, you could just remove the broken stud, drill and tap a thread into the plate, and loctite a new bolt in in place of the stud.

The pin that holds the triangular piece to the linkage rod i thought removing it it had a clip behin the bolt but turns out it broke so your saying i can drill the triangle (wel call it that for this convorsation) and put a thread in it and loctite a bolt to it?

Depends on what condition the triangular plate is.
If its broken a part of the plate, then its more difficult to fix.
If you can get the stud out and there's still a hole in the plate in the correct place, then yes, tapping a thread in and loctiting a bolt in will work.

I've done it before. Mine was the stud actually snapping when I went to remove the nut that holds the linkage on. So I drilled the broken stud out, tapped the hole for an M6 bolt, and then loctited a 16 or 20mm M6 cap screw in. Then used a nyloc nut on to hold the linkage, so it doesn't need to be torqued up tight to stay on.
