As far as the replacement of my rearset components and rear tire go I was not able to do it on my own this time around due to the lack of strength. Electrical stuff I don't fair very well either so our shop mech was kind enough to lend me the hand I needed 3 weeks ago (pun intended ).

The body work I was able to finish off on my own though, although it was challenging. I'd say it took me about 10-11 hours total with my strong hand this week. It involved a bit of drilling, trimming and filing to get some of the pieces to properly line up. Plus the aftermarket body work did not use stock mounting brackets for the headlight housing so I had to find/use alternative sized hardware in certain spots. It was a lot of assembling and disassembling to ensure all the fitment and lines of the bodywork were to my standards.
