Ken, thanks for the phone call yesterday. I checked my call schedule and I'm on call next weekend and I can't make it down to Tennessee then. Sorry. Wish I could have helpped.

Heath would be a good man to have fix'r up!

So much for the craigslist wannabe theory!!! LOL

But I got to agree with that. One bad apple mechanic spoils it for te ret of us that actually CAN work on vehicles.

ase certified only means they passed a test on a book they read.doesnt mean they actually know what theyre doing.130 bux to pop a bearing out?thats ridiculous to be honest with you.it would be 20 bux if i did it for someone i didnt know.
