> The first time I did this I was so intimidated by all the tales of woe
about

the

>
> It took me all of 15 minutes of careful and methodical wrench turning and
> out it came. So much for urban myth.
>
> Once I had it out, however, it became apparent that the re-install might
not
> be so easy. So I did my research, made the appropriate mods as recommended
> by Porter and others, and I would challenge anyone now to a removal
contest.
> 10 minutes tops. No cursing. In between sips of your favourite beverage.
> Piece of cake.

> Porter's recommendation to elongate the holes in the cross beam towers is
> key, as is the creation of two rectangular holes in the bottom of the beam
> about 2" x 4" and you too will be an expert. I have some photos still in
my
> camera which I would be happy to e-mail to you when I get them jpeg-ed.
>
> No need to wish you good luck, it will be easy!
