Trussrod stripping

Sign in to disble this ad
Yeah guys,

I was adjusting a truss rod the other day when, due to some moisture-induced corrosion on the head of the truss rod, the tool stripped it out a bit.

I can still force it in there and get it to turn (eventually) but it seems like this is going to become a permanent problem. Anyone know a good solution for adjusting a stripped truss rod?

Thanks
