I had some luck by putting the outrigger leg in the freezer overnight, the

nylon appears to shrink more than the metal fittings, you have to be quick

when you take it out though as the nylon comes back up to temperature quite

quickly



Good luck

Hi Gavin,

 Thanks for this method.

 In the first time I used the freezer solution but impossible  to disengage the nylon leg, the nylon contraction is not sufficient, after I use  also the inverted solution with heating the aluminium and stainless steel parts,  but no results.

  

 Finally I adopte the last solution with the saw and drill.

  

 After I state that the nylon is dry and glueing to the two  parts in the time, but when I install the legs during the construction, I  use aeroshell grease between nylon Aluminium and stainless steel.

  

 In the time, the nylon leg with humidity swollen, also original leg is raw,  now the new legs diameter are reduce of 0.5 mm it is more easy to slide  into the 2 end fittings.
