That's a lot of work no matter which way you slice it Cory. Looks like it could use a touch of wax...

Well, apparently the ABS pump on the Expedition stuck itself in the on position and the ABS light is on. Yay.

A touch? I am afraid to wash it, it might start falling apart. The sawzall heats the stud up to the point I smell burnt rubber and the grinder takes more track away than the stud. I am not liking this removal. I was hoping to have them out by now so I could take it on a test run.

Beer and power tools, not such a good idea. I think I'll wait till after I am finished (with the power tools anyway).

Some minor melting is probably ok.

I have never really checked seriously into getting an AE. The only place I know for sure is RiffRaff.
