Good eye. LOL I've been needing to get in there and do it. I'll get them up this week for sure, yes, I have them. You can take any additional pics and we'll put them in there.
As for tools, bring what you can, particularly the jack and stands and such. I'll have my tool bag with a few socket sets and a few ratchets with extensions. I'll bring my cotter pins and some gloves. If you need me to, I can probably bring my breaker bar too, but I'll be a bit tight for room.
I lised the sockets you need for SURE. You really don't need anything else. Maybe some open ended wrenches for prying, but I'll have mine there.

I have, but I don't have them yet. Might wanna smack him around a bit. We'll get them there.

I've got a 3 LB craftsman sledge I picked up, I'll bring it. We will probably need it. LOL
