I probably should invest in some air tools even if they are the cheap ones for now until such time I can get better quality.
You know, Im kinda the same way. I like working on other pretty much more than I do my own. I dont know why that is. I like to work on mine when I have more time than I need to do the work and more money than required to do it right, LOL.
You are probably right about the difficulty. Its just the uncertainty of it all. Ive done nearly all my own work before except when the LIM gaskets were changed out and at that point I was over at Webracin's place and bugged him to tears. That wasnt a bad job, just labor intensive.
What I need to figure out is whether or not having pulled out the output shaft is going to matter and whether or not I can just put the differential back on it and slide it back in and be done with it?
I would probably go ahead and pull the struts out just for the room and such and Im comfortable with that having had to replace the axle shafts. Ive got new ball joints in so I will need to get a tool that can pop those out without damaging the boot. I have a fork to pry them out but I think it would mess up the boot and I have no spare ball joints. Ive seen the tool before I just need to pick it up.
And yeah, I agree with the uneducated mishaps, LOL. My big issue right now aside from needing to do the work is that I would likely have to do it over the course of a weekend and which Im sure it could be done, I would rather have a few more days for anything I miss or have an uneducated mishap with.
