I fixed 2 racks that had that happen, i just got some threaded rod and some epoxy i drilled a hole in the rack slightly bigger than the threaded rod and a hole in the skull plate. I attached the threaded rod in the rack, with some rod sticking out, let it dry, a few days. next i epoxied it in the skull plate. I set it up on the table with books/blocks to prop it up & weigh it down while it dried in the correct position. After it was complete i ground off a little excess steel rod. A taxidermist told me to do this, it worked. I forgot i also used some wire and rubberbands to help hold it together.
