Bongo Fury

I use an aerosol white lithium grease with integrated PTFE additive. When i lube mine i use an old scrap of card as a backing so the grease only goes where i need it to.

good tip IMHO

Apologies Ron - I was back to thinking about the juddering AFT

It was the AFT struts I was talking about

Might just work on Franco too Ron - you know, stop him juddering when he's trying to get it up before nipping upstairs to bed in cold weather

Well, I suppose the hard rubbing (to get the polish off!) might have some effect

Really happy for this thread guys, Im sick of raising my AFT and thinking ive got Jimmy Carr laughing his head off outside my van. I hate his laugh at the best of times never mind when its every time I raise the roof.

SO a session of greasing it is then but I may just leave the struts alone.

Cheers all.

thanks for the many suggestions,i shall try the lithiun grease,however its not the cold causing the problem as its 28degrees here,and the pool is at 26,,,, sorry
