I use my 1/2" impact gun to raise and lower the FAOR. 
I allowed a helper to raise the front one and it stripped. It was probably worn when he did it, but as is normal it always happens to someone else.
My only concern was the lack of written instructions that I am used to getting from WM.
1st take the FAOR off the mill. The threaded grease nipple needs to come out of the threaded block to remove. Then hammer out the spring clip holding the threaded rod to the nut. Install the new threaded block in the FAOR frame, install the grease nipple, then drop the new threaded rod into the threaded block and turn by hand at least 8". The bottom of the threaded rod is actually burred so as it does not turn all the way out.  Now you can put the washers and bearing on the end of the threaded rod, then install the nut and the new spring clip. Make sure the grease nipple hole is facing away from the hydraulic box. 
Clear as mud right?
I really wanted to show the FAOR actually have grease nipples.
