Got the Happy Jack apart, cleaned it, grease and oil, thanks to thread below, makes it much easier. I took the guts out of it and I had to straightened the outside tube that got bent this winter when I caught it with the truck support. I used a big hammer and banged on it with a piece of wood and got the tube perfectle straight, it now goes in/out real easy. The mechanism was well lubricated, top with white grease and shaft with oil, it was moving pretty good.

I now have to paint it and put it back toghether. Taking apart was faily easy. One piece of plastic that hold the plastic top gizmo inside got broke when I took it out, but I will have a new one machined.

90* out, sitting in my Lance with the AC on low, drinking an ice cold rootbeer and surfing the web. Life is good

Geez Buzz, for a guy who administers CPR for a living, you sure eat 'interesting' breakfasts.... That looks like a heart attack on a plate!! Ha!

My Cholesterol is low, my BP is 118/78, and passed an intense treadmill Cardio Stress test with flying colors. You have to enjoy life sometimes, it's not like I eat this every day. Normal day is Oatmeal or Cream of Wheat for breakfast, PB&J or Tuna sandwich for lunch, and 4oz of skinless chicken breast or lean steak sliced over a chopped green salad for dinner.

pulled out the flannel sheets and down quilt. Replaced it with 600 thread count cotton and a lightweight comforter. Put a new plastic cover on the window step up.
