      Removing the arms isn't that difficult on an ABY IME, just put the rack hard over (can't remeber which way) and the bolts are visible and access is good. Might require popping under the car once or twice but not the most difficult jub.

      Might be repeating what's above but get the arms off and get some heat on them until they free up. Completely disassemble everything and use a wire brush and thread file to clean them up and put a coat of decent rust-proof paint or POR15 on them. Then copper grease the bejesus out of them when you put them back together. Could get some Bambride upgraded adjusters when you replace the joints too, much bigger hex section so easier to free up in the future.

      When they're all back on the car, pain copper grease over the exposed threads, nuts and lock rings, it'll crease a nice gunk that protects it all. Simply wipe off when it's time to adjust and then repeat afterwards. Waxoyl does the same thing.
