No snow will lay here....yet. the only issue I had working on older vehicles her in the rust belt was my 01 Ram. When putting the lift kit on I had to cut every control arm bolt and even the rear upper shock bolts. No big deal got them replaced at the local hardware store. Cam bolts I paid $48 at advance and the washers aren't big enough so I can't adjust my axle (which I think is causing my shaking at 45 and above but it could be a tire out of balance). I finally invested in a heat induction tool, which should stop that problem.
Here is the link for anyone who is curious:

They are really good and I use them to. The only problem is if you have a rubber bushing you are trying to save it will catch it on fire. This tool won't. Basically it's a glorified heat gun that sends the heat through the bolt. I will probably only use it a few times over my life but it's worth it in my book to save from ordering shocks (since my truck is lifted) as I can't have a vehicle sitting that long

It's not bad here honestly. I originally am from Texas and believe it or not it was harder to work on vehicles down there. The worst part when I did this as a living was being under it and a chunk of snow hits you in the face. Now when I work in mine I let it sit in the heater garage for about 1-3 hours to dry it out.
