Need help with changing lines on new Nostalgia Kegerator

[therainmaker]

I'd like to change out the faucet to a perlick faucet and possibly change the tower to a 2 tap tower.

However my issue is this, I bought this thing used and it appears to never have been cleaned. At the very least, I want to replace the current lines and faucet and possibly tower as there is some funky looking stuff going on. I want to change it all over to ball lock cornys as well...

But heck, I can't even figure out how to get the old lines out of the tower....

Help please!

Here's a start:
It documents a single to dual tap conversion of a Danby kegerator. You definitely want to change out the lines as a first step.

That's phenomenal stuff! My issue is the top chrome looking piece of the tower doesn't want to budge. I assume it's a press fit on, but I'm about half nervous I'm going to break something if I work on it any harder

The top piece of the tower should be a light press fit. If its never been removed it may be a bit tight. Tapping it lightly with a small hammer and something like a screwdriver may help loosen it up. Once you get the cap removed you'll see how the faucets are attached inside (with either a 1" or a 1 1/16" nut). You might need a special wrench if theres more than one faucet. Once the faucets nuts are removed its pretty straight forward.

Yes indeed! I was able to pry it off... That puppy was TIGHT! I'll have to get a special wrench because the ones I have are too wide to fit down in. Just going to pitch that whole thing... Rusted up a bit and whatnot, and replace it with a perlick one.

Thanks for the help folks!
