I'm telling you, it's the best stuff! PB= soak for days, Cyclo = soak for hours and even minutes sometimes.


And BTW, I don't huff it , I spray it in a glass and drink it, keeps my old tired bones from squeaking! LOL

Where did you get the new outer shafts? I just ruined one today, and there it sits in the shop till i get what i need for it. Whats going to be the best bet for the parts and where to get them? Ive already got the new greasable u-joints, front left hub assembly,(heat ruined it last time i tried to get it off).

I'm going to look for the Cyclo and Knocker loose next time i go to NAPA. I have been using WD-40 for years w/o any good results. Good protectant, though.

WD-40 sucks. It is nothing more than Kerosene. It evaporates rather quickly, and when people use it as a lubricant it actually collects dirt and gums up the works.
