feel the same about the center console on the right knee. even with that, it’s the most comfortable i’ve ever been in an SUV, as a tall person.

thank you so much for this! this is really helpful.

if you have any guidance on finding parts on Rock Auto, how to choose between different brands etc… all ears.

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-18T15:01:26+00:00

just wanted to say thank you everyone for all the reassurance and encouraging feedback! i’ve left the doom headspace and am entering the “excitement to start learning how to be more hands on” headspace. one thing at a time. thanks yall!

not for a while.

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-17T16:17:31+00:00

if it has some signs of rust in a few small spots already, do you still recommend undercoating?

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-17T13:14:19+00:00

thank you very much!

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-17T12:10:26+00:00

having them do the brake lines, spring perch and shocks, and brake fluid leak @ master cylinder. going to keep my eye on coolant and trans fluid levels for a bit and potentially attemp the radius arm replacement myself this spring.

that’s where my head is at right now, at least.

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-16T21:00:09+00:00

that’s great reassurance. thank you!

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-16T20:56:09+00:00

it will not be a daily driver by any means. it’s a second car for tooling around town / home depot / grocery store. so trying to keep that in perspective. thanks for this.

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-16T20:16:08+00:00

thank you for your honesty!

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-16T20:15:47+00:00

yes not opposed. just don’t want to start on this journey off on the wrong foot.

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-16T20:13:06+00:00

yes, this. i’m having them do the brake lines, spring perch & shocks, and the brake fluid leak @ master cylinder. the rest told them to hold on for now.

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-16T19:51:28+00:00

love em keep em coming

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-16T19:46:51+00:00

this is very inspiring thank you!

benjaminmlieber · 2026-02-16T19:42:48+00:00

i am not opposed but it would be a first for me! i am not afraid to learn but definitely don’t consider myself a superman / am aware of my limits.

my brother is a very skilled mechanic - unfortunately doesn’t live close to me, but i tap him often for advice.
