here's a little dilemma with these tracks and all of the plastic Argo tracks are the same they got a
rod goes from one end to the other and they got this little collar lock collar in here and that got a little tiny set
screw in it and lots of things happens to these the set screw strip so and the uh collar seizes on to the rod the rod is a
carbon steel I assume or just plain steel so it rusts up uh the rod also wears out the links in the track as it's rotating so there's a lot of
disadvantages and if it happened to come loose if not his own then the rod can actually slide out and hit the body of
the Argo and rub a hole through the tub so I'm thinking about removing that and here's what I'm thinking about going I just made one of
these it's tril for stainless got a little l-shape putting one in and I thread the other
in National course4 inch 20 no like nut and I put it in the track link like
this you see no collar and that just sticks up there so I'll put this side in towards the body Argo so if a nut do happen to come loose and this will just slide out this
way and there's no fear of damaging the Argo and for taking the track supp power be very simple just take that nut off and uh and just pull on this one right here
a pair of voice scripts or a hammer so I just bends it on a little little Bender I got here that goes in
there like that handle there bends that up L any de and I got some stainless stainless nuts
there there a quarter Rod it's a lot of links to do so I got two done so that leaves a V
for 55 to go 56 couple Spears 57 think be a good idea
