Somehow I am going to be the one stuck under the car getting eating. I am sure we can tackle this. My shop charges 5 hours of labor. The book says it takes 6 hours.

Do not worry, she will let all of know how it goes and I am sure there will be pictures.

That's a good thing, I think. I've stopped myself and thought again many a time due to visions of spurting blood and detached parts dancing in my head. It sounds horrible, but I'm still here (with all my parts)...
