This thread is timely as many of us including myself are doing maintenance before the driving season. Today I had to remove the RF Trigo Knock off on my PS FIA Wheels to adjust a wheel bearing. It had not been off for over 3 years (no flaming please). It was initially stuck and didn't want to move. I had used anti sieze liberally during assembly. I wacked on all three ears equally with a 3 lb sledge and an 18" piece of Oak Wood and then broke out the propane torch and used it discretely. It did my heart good when it started to move. "Note to self"... remove knockoffs yearly.
