Re: replacing stanchions

Almost certainly if it is a stainless stanchion in an aluminium socket it is corrosion between the two. Lots of WD 40 and patience. Bit if local heat to expand the ally may help. When you put it back you can use a paste or tape to isolate the two metals. A rigger will have it - can't remember the name.
