never said you werent serious.....its an easy side job for people like us that are experienced or have some mechanical inlcanation and have learned how to do it, but for people who dont know what the hell there looking at its not that simple and theyll end up fucking there shit up if they try to do it themselves......the d series motors are the absolute easiest cause you dont have to remove shit in the head......
