I agree with the efficiency reports' conclusions.
However, the research backing those reports was flawed, in failing to take into account medical bills for burned toes and splinters in the heel (especially those metal ones - OUCH!, and don't ask me how I know!)
Therefore, when lost time and medical expenses are factored in, the efficiency goes up to 80% - for the doctor, that is.

man its nice doing the bushings on my 4wd they just popped off and slid right back in.
of course the bushings around the axle were a pain in the butt
must be nice to work barefoot in your shop mine has to much gravel and grass but it doubles as a driveway

Thanks for the reply Bigric.
I was hoping that I would not have to tear down the suspension once again to replace the bushings.
As for the the barefoot thing, I am one of those people that cannot be without at least a pair of socks. Ask my wife, she hates that I wear my socks when we are "visiting". When I work on the truck I have to have on a good ole pair of steel toed boots.
