Maintenance of rear steadies

T650 · 2016-06-10 17:23:06

Hi there, looking for advice on best way to get rear steadies back to full working order. They are are pretty dry as it is and when I try to wind them down the ratchet/thread slips a lot. What's the best method to take them apart and what should I lubricate them with ? Thanks in advance for any help.

This is recommended rather than regular grease.
