Awning Problem

[Keith Strehle]

Not to be the spoiler but I tried the solvent/PB blaster approach.
All it did was run down the inside of the ss steel tube. IMHO there
are only two ways to fix it. Heat (I used a propane torch)and brute
force or a credit card.

new arm assys. on my 83 FC, kinda costly, might be worth it to spend
