It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

Been a blast so far,  not cutting ne corners on work done.  Im a firm believer, do what you can and seek help/ assistance when needed.  Learned alot.  Never realized put in poly bushings were such a task.  You guys on this site motivate me to death hooah!  Lol.
