Just finished a little project on my RT 56.

It always teeter tottered and the leg levels were rusted solid.  I tried various types of products and nothing would loosen any of the leg levelers.  I already had the compressor out so I just drilled out the old ones.  

Ordered the inserts from SJW, and the leg levelers from FunT.  I looked around the local box stores and the closest I found was 5 /8 and they were for wood.  They are a 3/8 (16) insert and so our he levelers.  My neighbor a mechanic had a wire feed welder which only took about 10 mins.

Did exactly that Leonard !

Make a big difference worth the extra $15.00 and the labor to go with it.
