? 4 Convertible Top Frame Restore Question


pflaming

Recommended Posts

I am currently conversing with a member on restoring the 'scissor' top frame. He has been VERY helpful, so thankful we connected or I would have make a HUGE misteak! I would be very comfortable to continue with his help, yet  conversation on other's knowledge and experience may be helpful to all. 

 

Question: I am currently soaking all hinges with Liquid Wrench penetrating oil, which in my experience is far superior to PB Blaster and WD 40. When I return in four weeks, I'm going to get some acetone and mix it 50/50 with ATF which is even better. 

 

My goal is to get it all free so I can manually easily raise and lower it. I do not think I will take the risk of disassembling that frame. Comments are welcome.

 

This is what I have work with and to make operable again.
