Acer Travelmate 4070 DC Jack Repair

This Acer 4070 came in with a physically broken dc jack. The center pin was gone and rattling around inside the laptop.
It's the travelmate version of the Aspire 3000 laptops. The only difference I can find is an ergonomic keyboard vs. the standard keyboard on an Acer 3000.
It uses the six pin, 1.65mm dc jack that most Acer laptops use new and old.
The laptop is easy to get apart and the power jack came out smoothly as usual.
After replacing the power port it works like new again.
