Unloaded the camper after a weekend trip and have two Fastguns that warranty will take care of. Adjusting nut has galled Completely STUCK on one, and the other required extreme force (24" pipe wrench) to adjust enough to hold the camper to the tiedown. On the one that was completely stuck, I cut the SS rod and added a Tractor Supply 1/2" turnbuckle to get me out of a "jam" - pun intended.
I have had SS bolts and nuts do this before. Might add some anti-sieze compound when assembling replacement parts.
