Is there a similar tune up guide for the 58 Remington?

Not a tune up guide but I do have a bookmark for a site that shows disassemble and general maintenance. If I could just find it.
Check the stickies here and also the SCORES section

The Remington has fewer issues than the open tops generally. No arbor fit issues that plague the open top Colt. Hand springs and bolt springs are known to break, other than that the 1858 is pretty trouble free. Polishing the hand and hand slot inside the frame well really improve the 'feel' of the action. Anyplace metal moves against metal should be smooth as possible with out removing material.
