    Can you remove a warp left tube?

    I have an angel threaded 90* adapter, and the agd site says the warp left feed tubes are angel threaded. how should i go about removing it so i can put myadapter on?

    muscles, a towel, and a pair of plyers/ or strapwrench. It unscrews. You need to protect what you dont want to mar, and twist.

        I had no idea that the feed tubes on ULE warp bodies came off. I thought only the vertical feednecks unscrewed.

          I used a strapwrench a little bit of muscle to get it off. it should break free fairly easy. Make sure your knuckles are out of the way though, I still have a scar from my last adventure

              no problem. That thing sure does rip with the 18V mod. Before I sold it, I even changed the drive belt (o-ring) to ensure perfect performance Did you install the intelliswitch mod I included as well? That really makes it worth while.

                  Believe it or not, I accidentally removed my friends ULE feedneck trying to twist off the warp-feed elbow

                  They aren't loctited or anything, just torqued on.

                    thanks for the replies guys. I cant for the life of me get this damn thing off. I tried heating it to loosen any loctite, and a white greaseish residue was dripping out from the inside. sadly, I dont have a strap wrench, which might be why this is so hard

                      ok, i am getting no where with this. I went out and bought a strap wrench, applied some liquid wrench, and it has budged less than a quarter of a turn. more along the lines of 1/8 of a turn. the rubber strap on the strap wrench is about to rip because of the amount of force i am putting on it, and the damn feed tube still doesnt move. is there anything i am missing? I honestly cant think of anything short of welding that would hold something on this hard
