If the Ball Cup keeps popping off when trying to adjust the rod, try putting a little greese on the threads when you first put the cup on the rods, seems to help with that issue.
thanks for the tip. i tried bees wax once (long time ago and forgot about). seemed to work pretty good back then.
the jcs do not work for me for what ever reason. ordered the 4-40 for the upcoming weekend.
will try the black grease thing.
