Congrats! Weird but its a good feeling isn't it? I remember when I got one that was really stubborn out my wife asked me why I was in such a good mood. I just said...you have no idea what I've been thru. It is a rewarding feeling for some reason.

don't use never seize. that's a big no no in a saltwater environment. marine grade grease will work fine and that pin will slide right out in the future. I've done some 5 yrs later and the grease hold up. I've seen some with never seize at 6 mos that are frozen again.

Hmm... more good info. I've been using a "secret recipe" of marine grease and that high end never seize. I think the cheap neva-seize dries out and is a problem. My mixture has been working for me for years. Props and bolts always come off. I'll keep an eye on it though,,,thanks.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
