Me too but there are things that I can still learn. I admit I fall short of knowing everything, not very short but still short. I think that I am still capable of learning new stuff. I am one of the old dogs who can still be taught new tricks to.

I wouldn't bother on an alignment till you put that track bar in..Once you remove the old one and put the new one in you're going to need an alignment then as well..Just my thoughts on saving a few bucks..

This was how I learned at school (4 years Auto-Tech) and is also found this way here http://www.advanceautoparts.com/engl...20011001bb.asp and here http://www.teamscr.com/brakes.htm and also here http://www.stoptech.com/tech_info/wp...edbrakes.shtml And here says it doesent matter if you start at the front or rear but if you start at the front do the passenger side first http://www.zeckhausen.com/bleeding_brakes.htm

Ya know I have a 2" lift and have yet to have an alignment and ya know I can tell it needs one..lol I wanted to replace the TRE's, Drag link, ball joints, u-joints and wheel beariung/hubs first and get a new lift to get up to around that 4" mark and well hmm it's been some time but hopefully by mid august lift will be on, new rims, tre's & drag link(already done), ball joints, hubs/bearings all done...then I can get an alignment and hit the trails hard...
