I just figured I'd say something because I'd hate to see you get everything elce done and put back together to see you have to take it back apart.

I would love to contribute a sticky on that info, but I'm not doing the work. I don't really have the time or the space to do it.

However, anyone can shoot me a PM to talk about getting a copy of the factory manual.
