I own an Omni D that works well and enjoy using, except the PTO is beginning to drag. Have the kit to rebuild it, have never done a rebuild before, but am reasonably mechanically capable. TT tells me the price is $125 to rebuild it, and then of course the shipping will likely add at least another $50. They tell me alignment after rebuild is probably not necessary.

So, appreciate advice about rebuilding/having TT rebuild it/ or avoiding the issue by just selling the rig, Finally, assuming I rebuild, what is the best solvent to remove the old grease? Is Varsol ok?
