One ‘solution’ I found for getting it apart.  Bill

Answer:
Warm the threaded union with a propane torch (won't hurt the metal).
When it is as warm as possible, douse it with SAE 30 oil until it is cold.
Soak a shop rag in SAE 30 oil, and wrap it around the thread union, tightly wrap the rag in Saran. ™ Cling wrap.
Allow the threaded union to soak for two or more days.
Then try again.

Hi Bill,

 

Checking further, it's not in stock with Niemoeller. I'd rather get one stateside, if possible. My 300SD is a W126 but I believe it's the same part for the W123. I have to do the same job on my 81 300D so I was hoping to get a few of these guide rods in case I have more trouble getting the others loose.

 

thanks,

David
