Illusion XS tower wear

Our 2009 Response FXi has an Illusion XS tower which, aside from a few design flaws, is an excellent tower.  However over the last couple years it developed a creak sound under high load (pulling up riders).  Upon inspection, we found one of the two pin bores in the base of the tower to be worn oval, when it should be circular.  This seems to allow for additional play/slop at the pivot point.  The creaking sound is not pleasant nor reassuring so we’d like to fix it as soon as possible.  Has anyone else experienced this and if so, what was the fix?

 

Thanks!
