Thanks a lot guys, if you would be girls I would kiss you but for the known reason I'll stick with the usual thank you.

I just ordered one, cuz I like to have my own tools and also I intend to offer my services to others non mechanical person who want to mods but dont want to spend a fortune, cuz with me there aint no taxes and the price is right, when I do a job for someone, I supply the beer, music, green stuff, pool, BBQ, oh of course the tools and my skills.

Cheers and thanks to all..

I didn't know the exact word for it in english cuz english is my second language. I know if I do it myself it's going to be well done and I dont want to give 300$ to the dealers for doing it, instead I do it myself so here my breakdown cost:

1- spring compresser 39.95$
2- 12 pack of Corona 12.00$
3- 2 big one free
4- BBQ 10.00$
5- The pool free



Cheers
