My TR3 has an adjustable column and I could not get the wires to slide up and
down because my tube was a little rusty inside. SO,, I took a wire brush
for cleaning a pistol, (357) screwed it to a cleaning rod for a rifle and spun
it up and down in the tube with my electric drill. It cleaned it out really
well and made it shine top to bottom. I then carefully pulled my wire out
straight and worked them so they laid together really well. I bought some long
heat shrink tubing and heat shrunk all the wires together. I coated what now
looks like an umbilical cord with Graphite lubricate (dry) and pulled them
through with a string. They seem to slide ok now. Just a thought,,, 20 years
and
still not done..,, Kent Shrack 1960 TR3a, TS78.000 +
