Broken 3rd Door latch.

88 Bronco II: Tailgate/3rd Door latch has broken. It always stuck, one winter it froze, so I kicked it, thinking it would shatter the ice inside. Nope. Latch spins freely now.

How to fix this? Is it worth it? I'm looking at making a few fixes on this thing, OR getting rid of it (see other thread on starting. lol).
