This post was chosen to be featured in this weeks SoCal Spotlight!! Thank you so much for being part of the #socalsteemit community.
I hate the way garages over charge for labor, and half the time they don't even fix it properly!
So thank you for the hours of hard work you have already spent fixing my Suzuki's.
I think I can fix mine myself with the help of this, thanks @csusbgeochem1
Good to know! Just make sure you take it slow and pay attention, as well as take lots of photos for reference. If you get down, call a friend. A simple beer and extra set of eyes to give you a reference point you didnt already have. Thats why i did my best with all the pictures.
