    PB blaster and a hammer to loosen it up. Then when you get it out, clean it off, and use a long last lube such as a light grease in the lock. Then I will check them periodicity and relube as needed.

    Of course this now reminds me that I need to check mine this weekend. :D

    lol, i pride myself on finding proper backwoods shitters. Nothing makes me happier than finding 3 rocks set up perfect for a squat.

    Pack it in, pack it out. Probably just easier to eat a bunch of cheese before you go. :)

    I had the same problem with the rotopax lock last year.
    Not a lost cause though Bob .... Remove the lock by un bolting it all , put it in a tray and submerge it in diesel fuel for awhile , like maybe a week or two.
    After doing so mine started working again .
    I then wiped it down and sprayed it up with "Fluid Film" ( Amazon)
    Never had any more problems , works like new.

    going to tweak the light bar/deflector height a bit to bring the top of the bar level with the other crossbars, then mount up the hi-lift and maxtrax...also have a set of wheelers superbumps to put in the front and lower the front coilovers a little then Phase I of the "re-build" will be complete :woot:
