Next up on the daily is the timing belt, the mechanic will do that. I'm more than capable of doing that job, but weather and no air tools or lift make what should be an easy job a lot harder. On the bright side, I have CV shaft changes down to an hour and a half per side no air tools.

Yup, that too. I'll do brakes, suspension, and some accessory work myself but if it's a DD to get to work with an engine or trans issue I'll leave it to a pro.
