KitchenAid Dishwasher
Mod# KUDS25SHBL0
Ser# FJ0703111
3rd level wash spinner: Part# 3379369

the one on the roof of the dishwasher fell off, The clips that attach it to the roof of the stainless steel tub are gone and I installed a new one almost a year ago, (attached it with epoxy putty), It came off again.
Anyone know of somekind of repair kit to take care of this problem, or some other glue substance that will hold up to the harsh environment inside the dishwasher.
I don't want to have to glue it to the tube that supplies the rinse spinner, becuase these spinners do have tendency to break often and I want it to be able to be replaced in the future if need be.

Total WAG here, but is this what your looking for:

If not, maybe you could post a pic of the affected area and broken piece.

Thanks for trying Samurai, but not even close........
Attached is the picture of the all the spray arms, the one I'm having a problem with is ref#25
In the plastic tub models these were screwed into the roof with two screws, they have since changed it to only one screw, (only one hole in rinse spinner mount).
The one I'm working on is a stainless steel tub, (I don't really want to be drilling holes in the roof of the dishwasher), I believe it originally had two little "L" brackets spot welded to the roof that the mounting arms are captured under to keep it in place. These "L" brackets no longer exist on the one I'm working on, hence the repair 11 months ago epoxying the new spinner to the roof.
I don't really want to clue the spinner ref#25 directly onto the delivery tube ref#24 if I don't have to. I picked up an o-ring that will just fit inside of ref#25 and hopefully the delivery tube that slides into it will be the correct inside diameter and the o-ring will help hold everything together along with another gluing..... (Need somekind of glue that will hold up to the environment inside the dishwasher and not leach anything out onto the dishes).
I will be going out to see what I can do with it this afternoon, I have no pictures of the actual dishwasher and only found one picture on the net of the tub and it really doesn't give you a good look at the spinner attachment point.
Here's the only decent tub picture: http://www.appliancepartspros.com/part_details.aspx?part_id=3124319&pn_=9744455
