[Spridgets] [midgetsprite] WTF is going on?? Lower Fulcrum Pin..

Did not use neverseize, Leo. It came out and went back in so easily ( I
could turn it with my fingers) that I was fooled into thinking I wouldn't
need it.  Hadn't put the springs in yet, David.  I sacrificed two virgins
and a fatted Hip-Hop singer, Billy.  Thought that would be enough!  I think
I know where I can get a little liquid nitrogen but will try my impact
screw driver first.

Thanks everyone!

Cheers!!
Jim
