heh heh heh Us longhorn owners are lucky on this one. I never had a problem out of the one on the old blue longhorn, however, the one ton sat long enough that the two halves froze together that it took 2 guys 3 hrs and a cutting torch to get the 2 pieces apart.
The lesson for all on that...if there is a zerk fitting...stuff it with grease.
