I hope you don't pay too much money for the work. The more prep work you can do yourself I found helps you in the long run with payment.

that's tru, but all the socket wrench does is keeps on turning and truning and it dont come out. i can't raise it w/ a flat head or anything. i think the nuts or bolts threads are messed up and its stuck the same place.
