After Ed and I do our morning walk/jog, and do some errands, I decided to change out the shock absorber/struts, on my car. I've got some wear in the rear ones, and the mounts/ bushings are worn. So, I went out yesterday and bought the parts, I have all the necessary tools. It's not that difficult of a job, but it saves me a few bucks, than having a dealership do it.
I Prefer to do the job myself, than have someone else working on it. I have very little trust in others doing work on my car. But, there are times when others have to do the work.
Now, as long as it doesn't rain. There's a slight chance today.

I am not all that mechanical. I can plaster walls, do plumbing, etc., but car repairs, lo though I would like to, are sometimes beyond me.
HUGS,

I'm very electrical, good with car stereo's , satellite radio's, audio sound systems and DJ-equip, lighting, ceiling fans.....
I used to change my own oil, but found it cheaper to have it done ( cuz I have nowhere to throw out the old used oil & filter ) and just didn't want to be bothered with a it anymore...
however on a good nice sunny day, I do still wash & wax my truck, as hubby laughs at me out the bedroom window ::)

Just with these replies I know there's a joke lurking...a really, really good one...it's on the edge of my consciousness...now if I could remember where I left my brain.

Well,... That was a real nut buster !! ::) Those bolts just didn't want to break loose, but I got em. The job took about 90 minutes. I think the bolts, may have had the original thread sealant on them. I got the job finished, all went well, and the car rides great! It's a nice ride again!
