    See that's your problem, I'm not family, and I can destroy if 5 minutes what two full staffs of Toyota trained techs took two weeks to fix.

    Lol, I wouldn't trust me unless you were telling me E-X-A-C-T-L-Y what you wanted me to do. Just like construction, I'm great at the demo, putting things back takes me a bit longer and it's not always quite right. :oops:

    Well there's a problem....Got a good friend that works for the local Heineken distributor. My fridge is packed with little green bottles!

    Me and my wife have a deal.....We both have hobbies that can (and do) drain the checking accounts from time to time. So we decided that we should find ways to supplement our incomes through our hobby. For me, that's working on other peoples trucks for a little extra cash. I've installed dozens of lift kits, put a few winches on, done wheel bearing jobs, etc....Not always fun, not even always profitable....But at the very least, a learning process with POTENTIAL to make a few peso's.

    In some instances, I'll let the owner work with me. I should charge EXTRA when I do that. And for the record, as someone who will capitalize on someone else's truck breaking, I'm forever grateful for Jeeps! :boink: Made a LOT of spare change off the local Cherokee boys!
