Default New "Old Guy" Thanks

I have a 1996 Ram 2500 x-tended cab. 353K in travels. I used the truck in my appliance business. I have semi-retired and decided to learn more about doing my own mechanic work. At 63 years of age I never have done "mechanic" work on my vehicles. My old Dodge needed some TLC. First thing was to attack brake and electrical issues. I spent quite some time searching your forum. Today I completed replacing calipers, pads on front. Followed instructions from your forum. All went very well and job is complete and works fine. Best info on bleeding the system came from a note from someone about the plastic bottle one man bleeding system, especially after my wife spent mucho more time pumping brakes than she cared to!! So went to parts and purchased plastic bottle kit, really worked well and wife is in house much happier!!

So just a much appreciated thanks to all of you forum contributors!!
