OK, I got it apart & clean but where can I find clear instructions on reassembly?  I am unclear on how to get the cam lever pin back in place.  Can anyone provide a source of step by step reassembly instructions?  Video or pictures would help.  Thanks.

Seamus,

Unless you have a padded vice, your fighting an up hill battle.  Do you have a padded vice??  Need to know before I tell you what to do next.

I got it all back together & working after some trial & error.  Turns out it was not the cam lever pin after all.  Would still appreciate any instructions for the future.  This link: http://44henryrifle.webs.com/disassemblingthehenry.htm is OK but short on detail.

A padded vice?...such luxury !!  :o
I've taken down several in the back of a (cluttered) camper, swapped parts, tested, repaired & reassembled in short order as well.
No vice required. A shot or two of whisky may have been needed to steady my nerves.....or am I dreaming ??
One of my pards was there, maybe he knows  ;)
