Default Monster Tower Problems
Does anyone know what to do to get my Monster Tower to stop squeaking. It is very annoying. I talk to monster tower last year and they sent me new knuckles and what not but it didnt help. Any suggestions? If i cant get this to stop this year the pos is coming off cant handle squeaking over the littlest thing and Monster Tower says it guarantees no sound, (YEA RIGHT!!)

    Other than the noise, how do you like the tower? I'm thinking of adding one to my boat. I would think that if you lubricate all the joints it should stop the noise.

    I'm kind of wondering if adding a small narrow bit of felt in between metal to metal contacts might help? It might be worth a try. I'm not really sure how it's made. Can you post some pics of the problem areas?

    I would think you could quiet it down the way ShabahZ250 says. Pics would help.

    Felt or nylon washers may work depending on exactly where the squeaking is occurring.
