Ok, tree is down! I like your idea Jay but that sounds really messy.

Now I have more time for stud removal. Anyone have a good option (or know how to) for rebuilding the rear shock? I saw a guy on CL in the Becker area for $20/shock.

Thats kinda what I thought. Trying to find someone closer to save on gas/time too. I think there is a guy in Rice that does sled work but not sure about shocks.
