As others have said, no step by step instructions on tearing one down.  There is some info available on this Phorum and the other forum as well.  Any questions, do not hesitate to ask.  I sold that one to a club member, no worries I actually got them as a pair.  Will be going through the second one this winter.  When the 37-690 is done right, it is one of the best out there.  

Take lots of pictures before and after and all will go smooth!

If you have rust between the vanes, I wonder how you get the NJ in between, and how you then wipe it off.morzh — 12:02 PM

If the noise is still there, the OPT might just be OK. Or so we hope.morzh — 12:01 PM
