I have an old US Army Humvee jack. I need help getting it back to working condition!

The pictures will be in the comments. I'm new to reddit and I still don't understand why it's so difficult to post things.

I found two old Humvee jacks in a shed from a unit that deactivated a while ago so I'm not sure how long they've been in there. I got most of the rust off with a metal brush and some CLR but the I can't get it to raise. The metal rod down the center twists but the joints won't move. I thought it may have bc it was dirty so I really cleaned out around the joints but I didn't have any luck. I don't see how grease or lubricant would help since id imagine the problem was inside where the screws our themselves. I have the arm bar btw. Any help would be great.
