  I just bought a used one, took it apart, hauled it back home, put it back together. All the pulleys and pivot points for the locking tabs, I took apart and greased as mine doesn't have the grease zerks in place. The operation is now much smoother and unlocking linkage has no binding. I like it alot. I also have a 11K 2 post lift.

  I'm used to undercoating cars. On them, you never want to use anything that dries because it eventually dries, cracks and ends up trapping more moisture than it prevents, and rots the metal even quicker. Do you not worry about the trapped rust that under the POR15? I bought a ZT! last Fall and before I used it I coated the underside of the deck with a full can Amsoil MPHD and let it dry well before I used it.

•

  Thanks for your comment. I've used POR 15 for years. "POR-15 works because it chemically bonds to rusted metal and forms a rock- hard, non-porous coating that won't crack, chip, or peel. It keeps moisture away from metal with a coating that is strengthened by continued exposure to moisture". They have much more detail on their website. por15.com/pages/faqs
