    Well now I see why its a 3-4 hour job...

    Its also the bracket for either alternator, or AC compressor. Either way, a pain in the ass. There always has to be something extra complicated...

    After looking at it for a minute, its the AC compressor. You have to pull the Compressor, then you can get to the bolts to remove the tensioner.

    Blake I hear you on that but for my application I don't need anything crazy. Usually its just give me a little tension and I can pull my self out.

    We both know that I won't get myself into anything horrible crazy and need anything more than what I have

    I got the passenger side tires on tonight. There is some rubbing issues up front - but some spacers will fix that. Everything else measures out to have maybe a half inch to spare in suspension travel. A 2" suspension lift will fix that also.

    The class is long but easy and full of great info, if you have ever picked up a gun before then the shooting proficiency test should be a breeze. There is a 6 month wait to get your license though.
