Color me frustrated. I have taken so many Athearn and P2K trucks apart I can do them blindfolded. Enter an Atlas RS1 Classic just purchased and in dire need of a lube. I got the side frames off no problem but now comes the tiny clips to remove the bottom cover on the truck. Using a miniature jewelers screwdriver I can pry one clip up to clear the molded on locking nub and have tried to gently lift but the cover won't release. Is there a trick or a certain procedure to removing these covers? Heaven knows the last thing I want to do is break one! I should probably note that I'm attempting to do this while the trucks are still mounted on the frame so I guess that begs the question, do I first have to remove the truck?
The frustration really comes from the feeling that I should be able to figure this out myself. Then age kicks in and reminds me of all the things I've broken in the past because I was too proud to ask someone with experience how to do it. See ya later pride.
Any suggestions, thoughts, criticism and/or pity would be more than welcome and muchly appreciated.
