Yes, there is a tool to help install them. Oops, I thought you were talking about something else. Not sure on these.

You're a sucker. Working hard and all. Try slacking off like those kids. Maybe you'll get a few days off

The kids start at 7. I only got 2 hrs with them. Then it's Roy's turn. He's the one that fired the the two.

I'm playing catch-up from the morning. Seems like everyone and their brother showed up today.

Getting them off was easy. Getting them on... I kept dripping them into the Zs frame. Recovered one... dropped it again.

How do you get them back on? It goes onto a bolt in a linkage joint so I cant hold the back of the bolt enough to get enough pressure on the push washer.
