      JH> Kewl! Just got the Haynes manual for my Escape with hopes to do more work       JH> on the car. I had lost a lot of stuff during my divorce when I lived in       JH> Maryland. Trying to retool here. Can you believe it? My ex took my       JH> sockets when I was not in the house. Claimed she didn't know anything       JH> about it. Now I have to get a new hydralic jack and jackstands etc. Got       JH> some nice new sockets both metric and SAE. Can't find my one man brake       JH> bleeder either.              I have been slowly accumulating more and more tools. You can never have too       many.               It is rare that I have to replace calipers, so having the wife pump the brake       while I bleed the caliper isn't bad. :) Having an entire car lift would be       really nice, but they are also really expensive. I have the hydrolic jack,       many jack stands (both car and truck). I could use one for my motorcycle. I       had borrowed a friend's motorcycle jack and used it - as a combination with my       hydrolic jack to lift my entire bike.              These days, I find that using a combination of RockAuto, Amazon, and Ebay for       parts (depending on what I'm looking for) has been a winning combination. Ebay       for the particulars for a vehicle, and RockAuto / Amazon for the new items.               - Mark              --- WWIVToss v.1.51         * Origin: http://www.weather-station.org * Bel Air, MD -USA (1:261/1304.0)    |
