I put this off for days thinking it would be a massive project, but Zenith really designed this chassis for easy servicing. It took less than 30 minutes to pull the chassis. Zenith was smart enough to emboss all the chassis connection points for the power switch, degauss coil, speaker, etc.
DaveWM: Thanks for the advice, I'll look out for those little caps.
I'm still amazed I got almost four years of regular use out of this set, with mostly original components. It was still hooked up to a digital cable box and plugged in when I removed it from it's original home in a Duplex in the Collinwood neighborhood of Cleveland back in 2011.
