If anyone from the Phoenix-area has a cotter press and wouldn't mind letting me use it (or y'know, walking me through it), I'll procure for said C&V'er a sixer of your choice of wrenching beverage. PM me.
PM sent. Hammer generally = bad, even when removing with no intention of using again.
How about that August heat, ladies and gentlemen?
