Plumbers are aware of that dissimilar metal corrosion. In their case, copper to old tech galvanized steel. Elimanated by going to a brass fitting between the two..

Yesterday I watched a group of construction guys getting wheels on to an old fuel oil tanker. it had been dumped in the woods sans wheels. big 10 wheel rig. Brutal methods to get some off. BFH and the blue wrench!! hefty guys swung hard... They got it done and outta there. Two trac laying excators for motive power. Two 4 x 4 trucks not enough grunt!!

Weater is fabulous going out there!!!!

I saw the video on youtube. The young guys were relentless, I told them to change the title of the video to "How To Clear 4 Acres of soil to replace the tires on a sunken truck".
