We all use our trucks as tractors around the farm and as such they from time to time they need repairs. Most of the time I do it myself but when it comes to front springs and ball joints I draw the line and have someone else do it as I learned at a young age (16) springs on a 1 ton can kill! I have to say without the right tools your just pissin in the wind and in for a lot of agrowvation!
My truck is a 96 F350 diesel 2 wheel drive flat bed and I don't mind working on engines transmissions clutches U joints brakes wheel bearings or the body, But coil springs and ball joints I draw the line. The thought of 4 or 5 hundred dollars or more sitting in the tool chest to use them once in 10 years is a waste to me so I would rather pay someone to do this kind of work. So the question to you out there is ware do you draw the line on work on your trucks and cars or tractors or combines? Bandit
