the rears don't usually have a problem because the bushings changed there (the rear carrier) don't face the same load as the front strut rods.

Just dropped the car off at my mechanics to get everything installed. I hope I dont get shafted on the labor

I like your engine undercover.
Gives me ideas since mine has begun cracking due to age and impacts with roadway debris.

Nice, I've been wanting a 3/8" torque wrench. Looking at the torque specs for the stuff I need it for, the range is crazy...it would be difficult not to get a bolt/nut torqued from 15-30#'s.
My 1/4" is a CDI, no complaints on it.
