If your doing it at work Alex you'll have the ramps, tools & the very big hot spanner all at hand plus the odd mechanic at hand if you get stuck

Well this is true, just didn't want to lure him into more work on my truck, he's done so much for me so far.

And also coz I'm on a time limit didn't want to leave myself stranded

You shouldn't have booked in so much work for the day then you could have had a ramp free all day for your truck surely they'll let you stop back an hour or 2 if it was needed to get your truck finished

There is nothing booked in atall, but we are 8-12 tomorrow and the tech will be prepping new sales cars ect.

I will have a ramp free, and the othe techs tell me wepphr will likely step in n help if I start making a mess of it

One of em told me to keep dropping my spanner and he wont be able to help himself

Glad i just watched that video about the spinning. I'd have been there for hours! I take it you need to grip the shock when undoing too?

Never done shocks on a T2 but as your at work & having windy guns at had will make the job easier & faster. You should be able to get them both done in 4 hours mate

Of course I'm going to tackle it, but you see why I am doing the research no?

I wont be having time to get things wrong and also I'm not familiar with most tools, anything after a spanner and ratchet is new to me
