Help limb bolt stuck
Went to goof around with my tiller on my Ross today and both limbs were maxed out. Ajusting my top limb bolt and it will not budge. I've pushed as hard as I could to loosen it up and it will not move!!! What should I do? Spray something on it and let it soak??? And what do I spray???

Use a cheater bar on the allen wrench. If this doesn't work then take it to a shop where they can relieve the pressure off the limbs using a bow press. Remove the limb bolt and lube both of them with white lithium grease.

I'm not sure how Ross bows are set up, If the limb bolt is threaded into steel, than the white grease works ok. If the limb bolt threads into the riser material, aluminum, than clean both real good and put either nickle based or copper based anti-seize on the threads and you'll never have a problem with the metal galling up. Works great on the Bowtech center pivots.
