Both suspect drives (2 and 6) show no ATA errors, but started reporting "1 Current Pending Sectors" in the last 3 days. I'm guessing I need to get /dev/md126 to accept one of the two drives to access my data, but I'm not sure how to accomplish this. Could mdadm be used to try and assemble the array again?

There is a flag that would force the assembly. You could end up with file system corruption though.
