It only took about 5 additional minutes after the initial 10 or so messing around trying to figure out what was going wrong.
I figure anyone not 'above the board' might have just let me drive away the way it was. He wasn't happy and went about resolving it.
In the end I asked him it he had added something to the bill for doing that, since fair is fair in my books. He said he added $10.
I was happy with that.
FYI....I stood a few feet from the lift the whole time asking how all their equipment worked. I also have a really good idea of what's going on under there now since Merv and I installed the Swifts, then I went back in last weekend to do the hole mod and toe bolt install and again one night this past week. I understood every step they took.
