      Michael, all of the T/A components were blasted and refinished by Bairs. Prior to removal I soaked all of the nut/bolts down with Kroil penetrating oil. $30 a can on Amazon but it worked great.

        Nice - I was thinking it was Kroil - you can take apart old Steam Trains with that stuff!

          Kroil smells horrible but over time you start to appreciate what that smell does!
