HELP!!! Badman hinges

So far @Joseph Russo says:
Splinter - I believe the Half X's use a much bigger hinge. Let me poke around to see if I can get them and I will revert back. If I can, I can def get them fixed for you. Will get back.
@Swirjo seems to agree
The hinges on half x is bigger and stronger there is someone selling on eBay for replacing the half x hinge
I do not know the source of either one's information and I only have a Half X frame and hours of internet searches seeming to indicate the Badman and Half X share a spring hinge. I have not yet heard from @Joseph Russo but then @TheStig who also is confirmed to have a Half X frame or two weighs in with:
I am interested in Half-X spring hinges.
As far as I know they are identical.
Can someone with both the Badman and Half X models in hand weigh in on this? Hopefully with pictures. I know @TheStig and I are not the only one with broken Half X hinges and if the hinges can be ordered, that would be very useful to many here.
 
Sure - I am in TX. I am also on ebay and her is the link if you guys want to do it through there so there is some purchase protections. I will lower the price to $95 for the service. I have performed alot of these for friends and just sent one to Oklahoma that was just repaired (both hinges). I have an order of hinges coming in mid to end of August so some will be delayed until then but if the order is placed, I can get them tee'd up. Let me know if you guys have any issues or questions. My cell is 917-613-2647 - thanks. Oakley Badman Madman X Metal X-Metal 2 Double Hinge Repair Service Replace Both | eBay

Does anyone on the forum repair them if I already have the pieces?
 

Ferr What is it that you need to repair?​

Below is the link for Half X hinge replacement, also the seller repair other hinges that is damage due to rust or etc.
I have a pair of badman that need to be fixed. I have the spring hinge part but scared to try it myself and screw it up more. I tried once but couldn’t get it to fit right so I gave up before I broke them🤷🏼‍♂️
 

@Ferr Do you have a picture I can see maybe I can tell by looking at it.​

Here’s a couple pics. Think I lost the little screw in the arm part
