I have never said rebuilding a DP drive was easy or that it could be done without special tools and manuals.

Hey there, fellow FF - I couldn't agree more. Sounds like your wrenching skills are pretty good, but without the technical training, it doesn't matter how much instruction we can get from the forum, we're still gonna fall short on some jobs. It would be nice if the more detailed repairs were categorized. Sort of like a rating system from one to ten - with the higher numbers meaning you should be letting a certified mechanic with the special tools, etc. be taking care of it. ( Maybe an idea for another sticky, Don) lol.
