We are planing a 5K mile trip in fall and I have not done anything ever to my 80A. Just thinking this could be a problem item due to aged out grease of unknown year count. I was going to see if I could get the bearings and brushes listed in the Parts Interchange and do it on my bench. Two questions-- will hitting the front nut to loosten with an an air impact hurt anything, and can I tap the rear bearing out/ in with a socket or should it really be done in a press, meaning take it in to a rebuilder. Again unit is fine but would like the peace of mind.
