Title: Side Rails Coming off - Sort of! HELP NEEDED. Post by Tanker2Biker on 05/14/10 at 15:20:35 OK, so I got home on Friday afternoon and started to work on the removal as part of the turn signal process. I have 7 of the 8 bolts out, HOWEVER, the center bolt on the right side seems to have a rounded off head. It feels like someone tried to use a wrong size wrench (maybe inch size?).. The 12mm that worked on all the others tries to fit, then spins. Any suggestions? |

Yeah, that's in my plan for tomorrow. The rain hit the North side of Houston this evening, so I pushed it back into the garage. I just went out and squirted some Liquid Wrench around it and I'll let it sit over night, and try it again in the morning with the vice grips. Bummer! I was so close, but it seems like it never goes a smoothly as you plan. :( That's probably why I waited for the week-end. ;) |

New turn signal mount & Saddle bag supports fabricated and painted. Let all the paint dry over night, and if it stops raining, I'll assemble tomorrow If it keeps raining tomorrow, I may be too sick to make it to the office on Monday. ;) |
