Anyways, take all your turnbuckles apart and mount one of them into the chuck of your drill. Apply a little bit of the ChapStik to the end of the turnbuckle (directly to the threads for each ball cup, doesnt have to be much), grab a ball cup, and thread it onto the turnbuckle making the drill do the work. Run it all the way in and out 2 times each and repeat the process on the remaining ball cups. Use the one turnbuckle to thread all of the ball cups and like I said, run each ball cup twice. Remove the turnbuckle from the drill (careful, it will be hot) and reassemble all of your turnbuckles. You'll be able to adjust them with the wrench included in the kit without them popping off.

Thread I made on the subject a while back.
thnk you i had heard the chapstick urban legend but the makin it easier/faster by mounting a turnbuckle into a drill part and working it should cut down on my time of gettin them all "adjustable" thnks alot
