It occurs to me that after all the parts and tools, it about half the cost of having a shop do it.
Of course also a ton of labor and learning etc on my part.
So why do it?
My motto...built - not bought.
Anyone can save up their pennies and write checks....that's not why I do this.
There's a LOT to be said about the pride of doing it yourself.
A few weeks from now, when she's running again, this is all water under the bridge.
And it's actually pretty fun!
