I have a few tricks too, plus the air compressor and air tools begging to be broken in. You know my number.
usually i heat the rivet head till it glows and bust it with my mac air chisel. the reason i said drill in my post is because most people that do it in their driving way end up drilling them because of lack of tools. Moogs good **** thats all i use. be careful tho iirc the bolts are not grade 8 that come with the balljoints. just make sure its torqued correctly. I would come by but im heading to the strip after work tom

Steve, you should've used reasoning. Where would a morgue be...Hmmm where do people die? On the battlefield sure but if they make it long enough they will end up where? The hospital! Lol. We're right behind the hospital. So for future reference when arriving on KAF you'll go past the big sign that says "Welcome to KAF" like it's a good thing. Go straight out to the road and turn left. You'l go down this road that'll cruve left at a guard tower and a wall of hesco barriers. This curve is wrapped around a large red brick building. THis brick building is the hospital. Behind the hospital, there is a lil dirt road. Go down the aforementioned dirt road and you see a fence with black netting on it to your right. Once you reach the gate, confirm the sign that says "Mortuary Affairs NO COVER NO SALUTE" I'm in there almost 24/7 with exception to get food and visit the px. We work, live, sleep, pt, on our compound so. There. No excuses next time Steve-o.

I dunno. Apparently, you guys had some issues? Meanwhile my team of 10 guys hasn't killed one another yet. So, we're good to stay for our whole rotation of 6-7 months. When we got here the count was at 120 for CY 2010 and now were at 495. It's rediculous.

Steve, I can't make any promises right now because I don't know exactly when you're coming home, and I don't know if my schedule that far ahead yet, but I'll do it if I can. Btw, everybody here has switched to GM sport compact. Net. Look for this same thread.
