Good info, Glen.
One trip to the salt and my hand tools just won't quit rusting; they never
had any rust problem before! Allen wrenches are the worst. Oh yeah-- and
chains and sprockets.

If you have a slide in reciever hitch, I caot the slide in part with grease
and the reciever part has a sponge cut too fit
and soaked in oil with a rubber cap over the front of the tube. Had a slide
in get stuck a few years back and had to pull it out
with a chain tied to a pole. Big mess to de-rust and clean up after the
fact. Lessons learned.
