Rick, You are a brave man.The explaination and photos are excellant. I am game for most things but this may be beyond me. I am on my second actuator in the twenty odd years I am in the sat scene. The first one only lasted seventeen years. My present one has got very noisy recently and proberly needs an overhaul like you suggest. When you are on holidays in my neck of the woods look me up and you can kill a few hours on mine. Great artical.TMULL

Thanks, It's really not that hard to do if you take you time, and if as you say yours is on it's way you don't have that much to loose. It will be easier to take apart it it's not siezed.
