So do I, but this ain't no picnic either: I have to do a brake job on the front of my son's car when I get home from work today and it's 18 degrees out there. No garage to work in & snow over ice. I sure as hell ain't lookin forward to it, especially at my age!I prefer the thermometer above zero, thank you.

Tell that boy to watch a utube video of how to do it and let him freeze out thereSo do I, but this ain't no picnic either: I have to do a brake job on the front of my son's car when I get home from work today and it's 18 degrees out there.

Thanks, I like that idea. I would love to implement that, but my son is perceptually impaired. He's a very good driver and he's understands the how & the why most of the time but gets confused & frustrated. I guarantee that he will be out there with me and if he sees me doing this stuff enough times, eventually, it will sink in. The safety factors involved are what I try to stress before we actually start the repair. He at the very least can pass me a wrench or something when I'm in an awkward position or he can pump the brakes when we are bleeding them, etc. He lacks the self confidence to actually attempt anything like this by himself. I have had him change his oil on his 93 Wrangler and such, with me watching, and does okay. Of course, the Jeep is lifted and you don't need to jack it up to do a lot of things under it. This one is an old PT Cruiser that we only recently acquired. We will be replacing the bushings on the lower control arms on it this spring. Not that difficult a job but the old man is finding more difficult to get up off the ground these days, LOL.Tell that boy to watch a utube video of how to do it and let him freeze out there
