Absolutely!  Yes.. Please scan the article.. I looked hill and dale 
for the magazine but could not find it anywhere even in the bookstore 
at the local malls... And i thank you for the h*lp...I have ordered 
a shim kit with crush washer and picked up a spare already ... I will 
be trying to do this thing this weekend and hired someone to assist 
but he has only done one on a F*rd... I've gotten some good advice 
and gleaned some articles from the net in preparation for the big 
event... Who knows soon I may be a specialist in this field...I mean 
after getting all the tools and supplies why not but first I'll have 
to see how successful i am with the first one :-) !
I sent this to the list because others have also expressed interest.
