<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Like Jon says, take a cold chisel and whack it.
Bang the chisel with a hammer - I guess without too much gusto just in case they
bracket does not break - you don't want to go bending action rails, etc. But my
guess is that if, as you say, you see cracks all over the bracket, a light to
moderate whack with a hammer and chisel will make mincemeat out of that bracket.
I've removed these things when the absolutely crumble in your
hands.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=375174312-26012007><FONT face=Arial size=2>As I stated in my
original post, I did raise the glide bolts. No luck. I also
checked to see if I could get the hammer flange screws out by reaching between
the strings. No luck there, either. Now, what would be the best
way to cut the bracket? Any ideas from anyone?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>Sounds like expanded brackets. Good luck getting replacements and
figuring if you</DIV>
<DIV>need the large or small ones. You might gain some clearance by raising
the glide bolts</DIV>
<DIV>thereby lowering the balance rail. If that doesn't work, cut the
brackets. Or test with a</DIV>
<DIV>cold chisel to see if they will shatter.</DIV><X-SIGSEP><PRE>--
