and boy are my arms tired! after a few weeks research here and there, i tackled the job. i used a sawzall, armorall,and a 12ton hydraulic jack. its wasnt the worst job ive done on a bmw, starter still holds that title. difference in the handling was noticeable at once. im tired but happy. when the time comes to re-bush the grape or swarz,im gonna try using my jig saw,and my dry wall router. the sawzall is too big to handle easily.
