I think folks have found a replacement for that resistor. You might try using the search function. Or maybe someone will chime in.
Yeah, unlikely to get a good fix there methinks.
City Racer has a replacement, although any 1ohm ceramic tube resistor would work, depending how "OEM" you want to be (or not be).

OEM 12V Heater Blower Resistor for '74 and later Land Cruiser FJ40 FJ45 FJ55
OEM heater blower resistor for '74 to '84 Toyota Land Cruiser 40 series with 12V electrical system, including diesel models. Some adaptations may be needed depending on your vehicle's market and model year: '78 and earlier cars don't have the black connector at the top of the heater motor...

It seems to me there was a thread not to long back with a "replacement resistor" than was Like $20 plus $10 shipping from some electrical warehouse type place. Google found it by description and part number I think.
I"m for trying a fix - Pry and scrape around the broke area and see if you can get enough contact clean to solder it back on. Might have less resistance so motor runs a little faster in low - who cares.

Let me start off by saying that I am no wizard at wiring. With that said, I got one of those cheap 2 speed resisiters and wired it up myself. The low barely spins at all, but high works fine.
Once I get my rig back together, I am going to spend the coin and get the one at Cityracer.

Yea I'd try and fix that too - the broken contact is usually part of a steel band running around the wire resistor - have a scrape around the top of where it broke. You might find it easier to spot weld it back on though
+1 for a spot welder. I have one for making battery packs out of cells to make/rebuild tool units.
Good plan, you can always spend the 50 or 100 bucks later if you need too..
