    I think I may rebuild my own after all. It will be a good learning experience, be a good bit cheaper and they'll be OEM. I watched a different video and looks loads easier than fully disassembling them like the other video I posted earlier.

    27th sounds good! We will also set things up with @Redmann to know if the seller will ship through Canada or right to him too. He has a month from now, but as we said it can also be moved. I don't want to make him miss the ride!

    That's a good video, "mind out of gutter" lol. It def seems a lot more simpler that way. Getting a CV out for me sucks regardless as I'm 100% all hand tools and no real garage lol. So I struggle through every project that way and they always take longer lol.

    Yeah, same here. At least I have a workbench in my basement with a small vise on it so I can do most the work inside. I'm gonna watch more videos and see if this is something I want to tackle.

    I prefer OEM, they have lasted this long and I don't believe there is anything wrong with them. I would hate to change them and then the cheap ones fail hahaha I might not even change them but I will have a better look at them once its warmer outside lol
