That sucks. I'm dreading mine. I've got to do it this weekend and it's seized on tight. Hopefully several days of Kroil will do the trick, and I won't be going down in flames right with you.

I snapped the mounting bolt so right now the new one isn't even secured.. haha the struggles of a daily driver i guess. if you break it, go to the jy and get another one and clean it.. dont pay for a new one like i did
