Ok guys, Not too long ago I posted about frozen steering. My steering is still frozen despite my pumping three pumps worth of the grease gun into her. I went to remove the cable but ended up removing the tube that seems to hold the motor onto the mounting clamps. The cable seems to run inside this tube, how on earth do I get it out? I can turn it, but cannot pull or push it in or out. I tried hammering.. it worked somewhat but only freed maybe 3 inches worth. What should I do?<br />Ive been staring at it for awhile and cannot figure what the hold up is.<br />THANKS ALOT

Re: M800......

soak it with an good penetrating oil for a few days...soak it good several times during this time. then an block of wood and some gentle taps will hopefully loosen it....remember just to keep working it....after its loose an brake cylinder hone will polish it up and then lube with an good grease before reassy.
