[QUOTE="97woodward, post: 367736, member: 10385"] I dont have a ton of mechanical knowledge, but I try to do as much as i can without paying someone else. If anyone on here is like me you have to pay for installations because you live in the city. The only work I can do on my car, is work I can accomplish in the parking lot of my apartment. That is a very annoying aspect to me ,when people constantly bitch at me to save my money and do it myself. I would and have done it myself ,but if it cant be done in a parking lot than i cant do it!!!! I lived in the country most all my life and I told the same things to many of my friends living in the city, I never understood why they paid so much for labor work. I now know. For some of the work though, I would pay the labor cost just because i want a professional job. I might of been able to install my 4.10s if i had the right equipment and space but even then i wouldnt of done it because i wanted them installed professionally. It is a judgement call, if you want work done professionally you take it to a professional. If you feal you can do a professional job yourself than do it yourself. Ive never understood this classic debate. [/QUOTE]
