I don't think it's ever been replaced in the 19 years it's been there. I originally used a 12-point socket wrench, which probably made it worse. I'm going to...
Very good; you will get it together one of these days if you try hard enough. Jusk keep reading and you will get the lingo. Things will get tougher before...
Hey chocdoggie, your experience struck a chord with me. If it's any consolation I've gotten pretty depressed more than once after taking off the wrong bolt or...
Yeah, they say the twelve point sockets and wrenches are easier to get on, but they make it that much easier to round the six faces of most bolts. I've...
