I think I don't have the right size wrench since I buy tools as I need them haha. I was debating renting the bushing tool or buying my own so I could always have.

No I'm on central time but since I'm relatively close to the station but to their left, I usually don't get them until like 7-8. Darn no turning left ups thing

Oh that makes more sense. I Forgot about time zones too. Since I'm considered a rural route I'm one of the last areas to get their packages in the day

Honestly I didn't praise Tracy but I thought he was a good mechanic that new his things and most importantly worked on the LLT. I'm just gonna leave it at saying my views have completely changed

Me personally, ill probably just rent a puller from autozone. As I have it understood, you only ever need it for the trailing arm outer bushing. Everything else is simple.

Have you thought about saving and buying a kit of tools? Generally it's much cheaper than buying something individual

my friend lent me his dads 200+ piece craftsman tools since I needed a deep socket and I'm just gonna buy the exact same set. I found it cheap on eBay and it has pretty much everything a garage mechanic might need.

Haha yea at one point I did and I really should have. But right now I am at the point if I bought one of those kits 75% of the stuff in there I already have lol.

lscamaro · 07-26-2013, 07:11 PM

Might as well keep buying individual then

Ahh didn't know that you had so many already. I myself have never had to buy a tool because luckily my dad has pretty much anything I would need.

Never lied. Just didn't correct his mistake. Not my fault he didn't know the difference.

That's what I got for Christmas and its a good set

kjkjr27 · 07-26-2013, 07:43 PM

Yea I shoulda got one of those but when I first started getting tools I only needed 1 thing and it seemed like a waste of $$$ to buy a whole kit if I only needed 1 tool from it. Buy now I realize I should just manned up and got it haha.
