Im no mechanic. I often use a hammer to beat it in. But I do all my work myself on my rig. Practice makes perfect right.

I always figured that it led to needless trail repairs.

Prop not much until he asks where the 1/2 inch impact and torch are.

It's critical care so i get to play with machines

I learned everything I know from the old man. Hes got a shop big enough to work on his rig and mine at the same time and all the tools to make it worth while. He worked for GM as a supertune mechanic for a little while.

Nice!! My pops was a mechanic for 30 years, i used to go to his shop when i was a lil girl but never really learned much. Got to go underneath the cars while being on the creeper (old school style) and cleaned his greasy tools!! Lol it was all fun to me tho!!!

LOL junya! Its what 'chanics used to lay on and roll underneath vehicles! This waa the days before lifts made their lives easier!! It kinda looked like a very awkward skateboard, 4wheels on a flat piece of wood with a tiny pillow type piece so u can lay ur head down! They used to to look underneath cars, change oil, ect! Learn something new everyday!! My job is done here!!
