Yes, plus this will also teach you to read a dial indicator properly. This little tool is also important in engine building. Good luck to ya.

Oh don't worry I Am doing this job myself thats for sure, I am learning to do everything to my xj myself. I want to be able to buy a beat up xj for my future son(when/if ever that shall be), so we I can teach him how to work on his own car and bond with him.

I also have a local jeep shop here that my co-manager just happens to work at he said that when I want to do it just bring it up there and we get started. I just wanted to see if I could do it myself....after everything said and what I have read I feel very confident I can do this myself but I will still have me friend come over to keep an eye on things for a couple of beers hehe


Thanks for all of the help and advice guys!!
