I needed the brakes done on mine (VW Golf) and he needed a new transmission (Honda Civic hatchback). We started at about 7pm after work one evening. The problem was church basketball started at 9pm. We pulled my car into the garage first and got my brakes done. Then got his car in and swapped the tranny. We both made it to basketball on time in our own cars. It was actually pretty damn impressive.
    That's crazy. Based on this post I will never post how long it took me to change out 4 shocks.

      It was one of those things where nothing went wrong and everything went in easy. FN Phat helped me do all four struts and springs in my Golf. We did that in a few hours in my garage. I installed an H&R Cupkit to lower my car a bit and tighten the suspension.

        There's a joke in here somewhere, but I don't want to offend hopfrog.

        Also, brakes and a transmission in two hours is UH-MAZ-ING.

          Ok I'm calling that one 6 man hours. I don't feel so bad now.

            hopfrog is a punk rock Mormon transvestite... probably pretty hard to offend.
