got one more question, that lube that ES gives, is it just me or does that stuff not work really well at all. i pressed in my shifter linkage bushings, and all it really seemed to do was make a sticky mess, is there a better product to use when pressing in PU bushings?

yes it makes an awesome sticky mess, but you need to use that stuff excessively. gob that $hit on, and make sure to use anti-seez on everything, meening the bolts. if you dont have it, go get some.
