Default Broken CA hinge

So here's the deal....... TwinStar ARF, ailerons with torque rods and CA hinges. Noticed while cleaning up the plane that a CA hinge had broken, the one adjacent to the torque rod.

Even if I cut out all the other hinges, I'm not gonna get that aileron out without ripping out the torque rod. I'm about to cut out a notch so I can lift out the torque rod assembly and repair the problem.

Any better ideas?
