I am AGREEING with you... the point where we go back/forth with her/I is the issue of females in general, and "who works on it" and such. She don't want my first brake job to be on her truck. Even if it is ideal.. compared to my S-10 Tahoe and Honda.. neither of which needs brakes.
We came into this thing with me with one truck I am not ready to give to the BITOG foray yet over "Ghosts of BITOG Past" (though I will at some point in the future,) and the Honda. Sounds like main cost on the Expedition (her baby) is parts.. as ghetto-fied as it may be. (Door wont lock, door wont open, see that bent running board?, cracked window guard?, mirror?, etc.)
And eljefino, OVERKILL says the rears are disc? But.. do discs have "wheel cylinders" too?. How much do they run?
And I would love to learn on a "retardedly easy vehicle." Not my wanna-be 90s GM luxo-truck, though the 4.3 is beastly when it comes works right... maybe the Honda, when it is "inner tie rod" time? Yea?
