Joe, the MC should come right off. Given the luxury of time, I would bath
the union with lube daily until gentle tapping did the trick.
BTW, I discovered CRC PowerLube about a year ago. Seems to work MUCH
better than Liquid Wrench for me, or maybe I've just been lucky lately. I
didn't have any trouble at all with a complete suspension rebuild on the
TR-6. Not any related to parts welded together with rust, anyway. Plus
the cap has storage for the little red tube that always runs away by the
fourth use!
