[QUOTE="bigjohnsd, post: 1232943, member: 86475"] I thank all of you for your inputs. I was concerned that I had bent something last year when I had my stay breaking tip over, or that something was jammed up in my adjustor mechanism. I decided to make a tool and modify the top of one of the adjuster nuts. I drilled two 3/16" holes into the top of an adjuster but, then modified a spare 7/16 quarter inch drive socket to engage the holes in the Adjuster Nut.

The tool was easy to manufacture using my pneumatic cut off grinder. Thanks again. Case Closed! [/QUOTE]
