[QUOTE="uncltrvlnmatt, post: 262796, member: 8290"] I enjoy working on my car, that said I am not going to be stupid about it. When it came time to put gears in it, I sent it to somebody to do. I have done a ton of rears befor. Ford 9 inch and Mack duel reduction rears. The difference is doing an 8.8 rear on your back under a car or a 9 inch on a bench. I have built engines in my kitchen. I have built more engines than most of you guys put together. Small block Ford, big block Fords, Mack E-6 2Valves, E-6 4 valves, E-7 4 valves, E-7 E-Tech. More Trans jobs than you can shake a stick at. I would not even attempt to try and count how many clutches I have done. But when it comes time to install the long tubes and full exhaust on my car, I am going to pay somebody to do it. I do it at work all day, I don't want to do it at home to. The last thing I want is for my fun time in the garage to become a chore. I am 43 years old, I don't want to lay on my back, drop the K-member and fight with a set of headers. When you get to be my age it is about working smarter, not harder. [/QUOTE]
